Very brave man. Penny L.

The novel “Very Brave Man” continues the series of investigations of senior inspector Arman Gamash. This charming character was created by the pen of Louise Penny, the only five -time laureate of the Agatha Christie Prize in the world.

“Today is the first day of Arman Gamash in the Quebec Police, where he returned after a nine -month detachment that followed a row for rash, pernicious decisions,” writers write on Twitter - no, obvious enemies of Gamash. Nevertheless, the police know: he is the best. He knows how to act desperately bold, risky and, no matter what they write in tweets, is extremely effective. It is precisely such decisions that the events that fell upon him on the first working day are required from the senior inspector. A young pregnant woman disappeared, and he takes up the investigation, experiencing a deep (and possibly unreasonable) sympathy for her father, because the inspector also has an adult daughter! Meanwhile, the province of Quebec threatens the spring flood of an epic scale. An impending disaster always carries chaos with him, and Arman Gamash tries to confront him. To postpone the search for the missing, according to his son -in -law - also a senior police inspector - and deal with more pressing issues in the face of a natural disaster? No. “The battle can be won on one front,” Gamash says. “But the war is won for many.” The ice on the rivers has already moved, the bridge supports are cracking, a video was running on the network, defaming the honor of Arman Gamash... Will he have time to win his war?
