The seventh novel in Martin Walker's irresistible mystery series set in the South of France and starring Bruno, chief of police.

Bruno, chief of police in the French town of St. Denis, is already busy with a case when the body of an undercover French Muslim cop is found in the woods, a man who had called Bruno for help only hours earlier. But Bruno's sometime boss and rival, the Brigadier, doesn't see this investigation as a priority - there are bigger issues at stake. Bruno has other ideas.

Meanwhile a Muslim youth named Sami turns up at a French army base in Afghanistan hoping to get home to St. Denis. One of Bruno's old army comrades helps to smuggle Sami back to France, but the FBI aren't far behind. Then an American woman appears in St. Denis with a warrant for Sami's extradition. Bruno must unravel these multiple mysteries amid pressure from his bosses and find his own way to protect his town and its people.

Any additional comments?

I just finished the last of the Bruno series. I have never before felt sad that a series was over...I did with this one. Unlike many detective / police novels I have read or listened to, the Bruno series dropped the typical attempt to keep one on the edge of his or her seat. Instead the author built a whole town and cast of characters each one playing some part (always differing and evolving) in an interesting but not spine-tingling mystery. I got to know each of the characters as complete beings, each with their own interesting and realistic back-story. I loved the well developed sense of place, the tangential day to day lives portrayed, and the detail the author put into Bruno's intriguing cooking. I could almost see and taste that part of Southern France that I never tire of visiting.

I want more

This series of books is great. I can't believe how much I learn with each one and my French is getting better, too.

Another Great One

Walker does it again. Like all his other Detective Bruno books, it’s a hell of a good read!

Bravo Bruno et Martin!

Characters are pitch perfect. The details on his food preparation is always mouth watering. Bravo😃

The series continues being great and the narrator is wonderful.

Loved this book. Reliving the kids experience of WWII was so moving and having the school kids present their vision of the memorial was such a clever touch. Sami's story is also well handled, although made aomewhat simplistic to fit into the medium. All in all, well told and I have re- listened at least three times at this point.

Gripping and moving

The narrator is just as excellent as the story. Very enjoyable indeed. Don’t overlook this one.

Best one so far!

I hate to finish these books because I enjoy "living" in Bruno's world. This was no exception. (Although there was some confusion about different titles.)

Although not the interesting, local mystery we're used to having Bruno solve, this tale of terrorism and WWII history was wonderful. Bruno doesn't carry a gun in his normal line of duty but we see that change in a big way here. All the characters were there - some just in reference if not in person - and we learn more about them. This was a real page-turner and I couldn't put it down. The narration was quite good, as usual.

What is it with Bruno and his women??? :-)

Bruno in a different light

I wait in anticipation for new Bruno novels - this one was full of twists and turns. I don't have a favorite because all of them are GOOD.

Bruno at his best

In Bruno’s small village of St Denis envoys of the Taliban arrive seeking a young former recruit. The story also involves a child hidden in the village during WWll. Connecting all the dots and weaving villagers into the narrative is a delight! I love the Bruno series! Well done Martin Walker!!

Bruno confronts the Taliban! Wins!
