I agree with Sandfordross. I have read every one of Louise Penney's book except Nature of the Beast. Couldn't seem to get through that one. I liked her early books. I received a copy of this one so I decided to read it. It is interesting at the beginning, like a flaky croissant with a number of layers. But there seems to be too many layers, too many story lines that don't seem to lead anywhere. And the story seemed to be unnecessarily long. The end was like a theater piece with people placed in particular settings to finish the storyline. And what is it with the map? What does it have to do with the main story line? It's OK. But I have gotten bored with Armand Gamache.
