1:12:02Now PlayingThe author of bestselling mysteries including How the Light Gets In and The Nature of the Beast makes a welcome return with her latest novel, A Great Reckoning. Penny has won five Agatha Awards and a New Blood Dagger from the Crime Writers’ Association for her ingenious use of classic whodunit features, unforeseen plot twists, and, not least, for her unforgettable hero, Armand Gamache. Now taking up a new position after his long tenure as head of homicide in the Sûreté du Québec, Gamache falls back on his old skills when a professor is murdered; found on the body is a copy of a map recently unearthed in a bistro. Puzzling over this odd coincidence, Gamache repeatedly runs into one of the professor’s students, meetings that raise suspicions about his own involvement in the death.
