Acerca de esta escucha
"Brassard's accents—whether French Canadian, Italian, or continental French—create indelible characters. His performance lets us feel Reine Marie's warmth and Armand's affectionate nature, and he adds an additional layer to surly Ruth and her potty-mouthed duck. Exciting and entertaining."—AudioFile (Earphones Award winner)
The 19th mystery in the #1 New York Times-bestselling Armand Gamache series.
Relentless phone calls interrupt the peace of a warm August morning in Three Pines. Though the tiny Québec village is impossible to find on any map, someone has managed to track down Armand Gamache, head of homicide at the Sûreté, as he sits with his wife in their back garden. Reine-Marie watches with increasing unease as her husband refuses to pick up, though he clearly knows who is on the other end. When he finally answers, his rage shatters the calm of their quiet Sunday morning.
That's only the first in a sequence of strange events that begin THE GREY WOLF, the nineteenth novel in Louise Penny's #1 New York Times-bestselling series. A missing coat, an intruder alarm, a note for Gamache reading "this might interest you", a puzzling scrap of paper with a mysterious list—and then a murder. All propel Chief Inspector Gamache and his team toward a terrible realization. Something much more sinister than any one murder or any one case is fast approaching.
Armand Gamache, Jean-Guy Beauvoir, his son-in-law and second in command, and Inspector Isabelle Lacoste can only trust each other, as old friends begin to act like enemies, and long-time enemies appear to be friends. Determined to track down the threat before it becomes a reality, their pursuit takes them across Québec and across borders. Their hunt grows increasingly desperate, even frantic, as the enormity of the creature they’re chasing becomes clear. If they fail the devastating consequences would reach into the largest of cities and the smallest of villages.
Including Three Pines.
A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

Historia
On a cold November morning, a jogger runs through the woods in the peaceful Quebec village of Three Pines. On his run, he finds a dead man hanging from a tree. The dead man was a guest at the local Inn and Spa. He might have been looking for peace and quiet, but something else found him. Something horrible. Did the man take his own life? Or was he murdered?

Historia
Several weeks ago, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Sûreté du Québec and his team uncovered and stopped a domestic terrorist attack in Montréal, arresting the person behind it. A man they called the Black Wolf. But their relief is short-lived. In a sickening turn of events, Gamache has realized that plot, as horrific as it was, was just the beginning. Perhaps even a deliberate misdirection. One he fell into. Something deeper and darker, more damaging, is planned. Did he in fact arrest the Black Wolf, or are they still out there?

Historia
During intermission at the famed La Fenice opera house in Venice, Italy, a notoriously difficult and widely disliked German conductor is poisoned—and suspects abound. Guido Brunetti, a native Venetian, sets out to unravel the mystery behind the high-profile murder. To do so, he calls on his knowledge of Venice, its culture, and its dirty politics. Along the way, he finds the crime may have roots going back decades—and that revenge, corruption, and even Italian cuisine may play a role.

The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

The story opens with the apparently accidental drowning of a sixth form student in the Norfolk countryside. As a matter of routine, or so it seems, the case passes across the desk of Detective Sergeant Smith, recently returned to work after an internal investigation into another case that has led to tensions between officers at Kings Lake police headquarters. As an ex-DCI, Smith could have retired by now, and it is clear that some of his superiors wish that he would do so.

good debut novel
- De Stevon en 11-11-19
De: Elizabeth George
As to the story itself: the premise of such great threat would have been better served, in my opinion, with more attention to depicting the person/persons behind it. I guess this proves that the premise of a 'shadowy villain' can be taken too far for said villain to seem powerful or motivated enough to carry out the threat. I disliked that Three Pines regulars barely figured in this story, having random cameos here and there, but did enjoy the tie-in to a previous favorite story in the series. I am struggling to finish this book which is disappointing.
I don't know how much weight Audible reviews have with production decisions--I suspect not enough. I doubt that I will be pre-ordering future Louise Penny books with this narrator.
Authentic accent cannot compensate...

The new narrator sounded like a gangster, not the warm narration of the previous person.
I found the story rather boring. I missed the characters from Three Pines!

The new narrator is absolutely horrible
Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.
This reading also butchers the rythmn of the work. When speaking as the novel's narrator, the reader has a tendency to end paragraphs with a slight hesitation into an iamb. The result begins to sound sing song. And while his pronunciation is perfect, as a listener, I felt that he read each paragraph perfectly as he intended but failed to deliver any connection to the other paragraphs. It was less a narration than some reading English perfectly.
My guess is that this narrator is not a native English speaker, and learned perfect English through school. In a series that relies so much on the plumbing the emotional backstory of the characters, only an Anglophone can reach across the two dimensions of the page to find all the non-semantic expression needed to fulfill the writing's height. I mean, why would Gamache's inner voice sound as if he thought to himself in a second language unless that was the basis of the story. I'll have to finish the series in book format.

According to book one, Still Life, Gamache spoke with a British accent described as sounding from the House of Lords. Later books it was described as warm, smooth and deep. So why do we have to transition to an actor from Quebec? The French is difficult enough to follow in these books. Then add in a narrator who is a francophone? Obviously he speaks in a French accent. Then add in a gravelly voice. He is terrible at doing voices. Amost as disappointing as the TV show Three Pines. I returned it after 2 or 3 hours of attempting to follow. This will be the first Gamache that I won't read. Sad.
