The 16th novel by Louise Penny, “All The Devils Are Here”, finds Chief Inspector Armand Gamache investigating a sinister plot in the City of Light.
On their first night in
Paris, the Gamache’s gather as a family for a bistro dinner with Armand’s godfather, the billionaire Stephen Horowitz. Walking home together, they watch in horror as Stephen is knocked down and critically injured in what Gamache knows is no accident. When a strange key is found in Stephen’s possession it sends Armand, his wife, and his former second- in-command from the top of the Eiffel tower, to the bowels of the Paris Archives, from luxury hotels to odd, coded, works of art. It sends them into secrets Armand’s godfather has kept for decades. A gruesome discovery in Stephen’s Paris apartment makes it clear the secrets are more rancid, the danger far greater and more imminent, than realized.

The 2020 Census Count ends September 30th. The Census works to count every resident of the United States and is used to determine representation in Congress as well as how hundreds of billions of dollars from the federal government is distributed every year. For rural Montana, an accurate Census assures we get our fair share of federal funds for important priorities like infrastructure, education and health care.
