ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In "Kingdom of the Blind" by Louise Penny, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache is summoned to a remote farmhouse, along with a bookstore owner and a builder, to execute a will for a woman none of them knew. As they try to make sense of the will, they unearth a family's long history of contested inheritance, greed, and resentment, connecting to a past conflict surrounding the Kinderoth family fortune.

The story delves into a complex homicide investigation, with Chief Inspector Beauvoir trying to uncover financial crimes, secret motives, and hidden relationships, including family dynamics, loyalty, and betrayal. As the truth emerges, the characters must grapple with past grievances and inherited hatred, as well as personal demons.
