2 mixes for this book

A shifting soundtrack for the story’s nocturnal call, the search through forested country, and the uneasy presence suggested by its title. The instrumentals build suspense and open into quieter reflection; the songs add human voices for the fear, secrets, and compassion that accompany a Gamache investigation.
