Meanwhile, Gamache followed Amelia, a cadet dismissed from the Sûreté Academy, hoping she would lead him to the stock of drugs that made its way onto the streets after a drug raid he led. What started out as a laughable situation turned deadly serious when the oldest of Bertha’s children was discovered dead in the ruins of Bertha’s former home after the structure collapsed. Gamache was named as an executor in the will of Bertha Baumgartner, a will in which she left money and a title she did not have to her children. In the novel The Kingdom of the Blind by Louise Penny, the fourteenth installment in the Chief Inspector Gamache series, a baffling will, a dead benefactor, and a missing stock of deadly drugs keep Armand Gamache busy despite his suspension from the Sûreté.
