In the first case Armand Gamache and Jean-Guy Beauvoir work together, they meet two children: Fiona and Sam Arsenault, who both grow up to be important characters in A World of Curiosities.

Before I was not a witch, wrote Ruth Zardo in a poem memorializing the terrible events of the Montréal Massacre, But now I am one.

We’re used to Gamache keeping his cool during tense moments, but during his conversation with the warden of the SHU, he reacts “beyond anger, beyond rage, into a territory Beauvoir had never seen in the Chief Inspector. Gamache was losing it.”

Ça va bien aller – all will be well. We certainly recognize this phrase from The Madness of Crowds, but LP uses it throughout A World of Curiosities as well, including once as a disguised message.

In her acknowledgements, LP writes about exploring the idea of forgiveness, the major theme in this book.
