The Beautiful Mystery is as beautiful as a novel as it seems from its title. The passionate writer Louise Penny has done an outstanding job to produce a crime mystery novel of such a magnitude, which is capable enough to grasp attention of all crime mystery lovers. This book is part 8 of the Chief Inspector Gamache/ Three Pines novel series. For narration, Ralph Cosham seems to be the unanimous choice of the author and he has done complete justice with his part as a narrator.

Still Face and A Better Man: A Chief Inspector Gamache Novel are a couple of other recommended novels from author, Louise Penny. Both of these are excellent piece of literary writing and powerful narration. As expected, the mentioned novels are also based on crime mystery genre for which the author is actually known for.
