The Black Wolf: A Novel (Chief Inspector Gamache Novel, 20)

The Black Wolf

Somewhere out there, in the darkness, a black wolf is feeding.

Several weeks ago, Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Sûreté du Québec and his team uncovered and stopped a domestic terrorist attack in Montréal, arresting the man they believed to be the Black Wolf.

But their relief is short-lived. In a chilling twist, Gamache realizes the plot he foiled was only the beginning—perhaps even a deliberate misdirection. Something deeper, darker, and far more dangerous is coming. Did he truly capture the Black Wolf, or are they still out there?

Recovering from his wounds, Gamache is confined to Three Pines, leading a covert investigation from the shadows. With only two notebooks, a few cryptic numbers on a tattered map of Québec, and a haunting phrase—“In a dry and parched land where there is no water”—he and his team must uncover the truth before it’s too late.

As Gamache digs deeper, he discovers that for the Black Wolf to have come this far, they must have allies in law enforcement, industry, organized crime—even government itself. From the quiet of his small village, he enters a deadly game of cat and mouse with an invisible enemy gathering strength and preparing to strike.

The Black Wolf is a tense, haunting thriller that explores loyalty, deception, and the darkness lurking beneath even the most peaceful places.
