A World Of Curiosities Book Summary
It’s spring and Three Pines is reemerging after the harsh winter. But not everything buried should come alive again. Not everything lying dormant should reemerge.
But something has.
As the villagers prepare for a special celebration, Armand Gamache and Jean-Guy Beauvoir find themselves increasingly worried. A young man and woman have reappeared in the Sûreté du Québec investigators’ lives after many years. The two were young children when their troubled mother was murdered, leaving them damaged, shattered. Now they’ve arrived in the village of Three Pines.
But to what end?
Gamache and Beauvoir’s memories of that tragic case, the one that first brought them together, come rushing back. Did their mother’s murder hurt them beyond repair? Have those terrible wounds, buried for decades, festered and are now about to erupt?
As Chief Inspector Gamache works to uncover answers, his alarm grows when a letter written by a long dead stone mason is discovered. In it the man describes his terror when bricking up an attic room somewhere in the village. Every word of the 160-year-old letter is filled with dread. When the room is found, the villagers decide to open it up.
As the bricks are removed, Gamache, Beauvoir and the villagers discover a world of curiosities. But the head of homicide soon realizes there’s more in that room than meets the eye. There are puzzles within puzzles, and hidden messages warning of mayhem and revenge. In unsealing that room, an old enemy is released into their world. Into their lives. And into the very heart of Armand Gamache’s home.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Women’s story.

I’m willing to believe that I am not alone in staying up all night to read this. It is worth it. For those who may be new to Gamache novels because of the series, welcome. World of Curiosities can be read as a stand alone although I would read Still Life to get a sense of the characters. It is the first women’s story.
However what is the best of this novel is that the tension builds and builds to the inevitable. The women in Still Life are now the witches/sages of Three Pines and it is the young women who embark on their heroes journey. A World of Curiosities is worth the all nighter.

5.0 out of 5 stars The unexpected return of old enemies threatens Gamache and Three Pines in “A World of Curiosities”

In Louise Penny’s new mystery, “World of Curiosities” (Minotaur), the past and present of Québec Sûreté Chief Inspector Armand Gamache once again collide in the idyllic village of Three Pines. But this time, in its most deadly form possible. It is spring, and as the villagers prepare for a special celebration, the winds blow Fiona and Sam Arsenault, a troubled young brother and sister, into town. They are the children of a woman bludgeoned to d*eath more than a decade ago in a case which brought Gamache and his future number two and son-in-law, Jean-Guy Beauvoir, together. Although the siblings were implicated in their mother’s d*eath, only Fiona paid for the crime. However, Gamache and his wife, Reine-Marie, believed in her innocence and took Fiona under their wings. Fiona has returned to the Gamaches as a graduate of the École Polytechnique, but Gamache remains skeptical about Sam. He senses a dangerous monster from the past lurking inside Sam.
The Arsenaults’ shady past is not the only harbinger of evil to blow into Three Pines. Gamache’s alarm grows when a 160-year-old letter written by a long dead stonemason is discovered, mentioning his bricking up of a room somewhere in Three Pines. When the secret room is uncovered and the bricks are removed, Gamache and the villagers enter a world of curiosities, including the discovery of a mysterious painting, The Paston Treasure. The artwork contains puzzles and hidden messages that propel Gamache to search his past, and his heart to protect those close to him.
In Gamache’s eighteenth outing in the Three Pines Series, Penny explores the familiar themes of art, family and community throughout the complicated page turner. And the rule of three. Throughout the Three Pines series, readers have witnessed Gamache’s great kindness in adopting and redeeming numerous young people with troubled pasts. Three such persons appear in “World of Curiosities:” Jean-Guy Beauvoir, an angry, undisciplined officer, Fiona Arsenault, a young woman found guilty of her mother’s d*eath, and Amelia Choquet, another troubled officer. Each plays an integral role in resolving a crime everyone believed had been as long dead as its victim. The rule of three also appears to Gamache in his search for the identity of an old enemy who has arrived in Three Pines to threaten everything he holds dear. No spoilers here!
