France's favourite country policeman investigates a suicide and gets involved in a tricky local issue in the latest adventure in this ever popular and bestselling mystery series.

'FRENCH TOURISM SHOULD RAISE A GLASS TO WALKER'S DORDOGNE MYSTERIES' Daily Mail

Bruno Courrѐges is chief of police of the lovely Dordogne town of St Denis with a remit that covers the beautiful valley of the river Vézѐre. One autumn morning he comes across an abandoned car parked near a local beauty spot. Inside is a dead woman, Monique, an apparent suicide resulting from depression. But there are circumstances surrounding the death that raise Bruno's suspicions, particularly when disputes arise surrounding her Will.

At the same time, Bruno makes the mistake of interfering in a local marital dispute. Deputy mayor Xavier has been playing away and finds himself evicted from the family home. Old controversies about deer culls take on new life and then a second campaign begins, stating that Bruno is less of a village copper and more of a secret policeman, whose main job is working for French intelligence. Some of the ammunition for this attack, Bruno learns, comes from Xavier, who sees this as a way to topple Bruno and the mayor and succeed to the mayor's job himself.

Suddenly Bruno's shiny reputation is looking a little tarnished as he battles to save his name and answer the questions surrounding Monique's suicide.©2025 Walker & Watson Limited

Opinie krytyków

A tense thriller that still lets you savour the tastes of France . . . With strong characterisation, Walker keeps up the tension while providing welcome breaks in the narrative for readers to savour the best in French food and wine.
Atmospheric and wonderfully multi-layered whodunits... enchanting, French-flavoured series which stars an astute, epicurean detective with a taste for food, vin rouge... and crime... Lovers of clever mysteries, social, international and political history, stunning scenery, excellent cuisine, and the very best of French wines, have enjoyed sharing the past seventeen years with the smart, likeable and fair-minded Bruno in Walker's exceptionally entertaining and eternally popular novels

I love the Perigord. Walker is a great narrator. As good as always. Peter Noble has a great voice.

The landscape and people

I love the way this was read out, the various accents and roles are really well done, as is the French pronunciation.

Nice

I love the continuity of these stories. The characters sound genuine and the descriptions of the area and especially the food and so enticing.

It’s as if Bruno and the characters were real

The old stories about cooking, food, landscape, hunting, and even Père Noel are drawn out at length, while the crime story develops neither coherently nor intriguingly. The dark clouds that are already hanging over Bruno's new love story are starting to get annoying. I can happily do without the next Bruno—if there ever has to be one.

nott good at all. The author runs out of ideas

I usually do not write reviews, but this time I'm unhappy:

The speaker narrates as if he is constantly on the edge.
This never-ending "overdone-ness" spoilt my listening experience in such a way, that it cost me quite an effort to concentrate on the plot. I only finished the book bcs. the Bruno series is one of my favorites and I did not want to leave it unfinished.

So far, I had always read the novels on my kindle. If you stick to this speaker for the next Bruno book, I'll either go back to reading (hoping that I'll manage to imagine another voice for Bruno in my head!) or stop buying the Bruno series.

With another speaker it could have been good.
