Series by Martin Walker

In the captivating Bruno, Chief of Police series by Martin Walker, follow the charmingly resourceful Bruno Courreges as he skillfully navigates crime and culinary delights in the picturesque French village of St. Denis, challenging corruption with his unwavering sense of justice and a love for local traditions.

In the sun-kissed hills of the Dordogne Valley, where the fragrance of lavender dances with the aroma of freshly baked bread, crime lurks beneath the charming facade of village life. Meet Bruno Courrèges, the beloved Chief of Police, whose love for his tranquil hometown is matched only by his dedication to justice. As the region's vibrant markets are shadowed by a string of perplexing crimes, Bruno finds himself navigating a labyrinth of intrigue that stretches from opulent feasts to clandestine dealings, all while rekindling a relationship with a resourceful policewoman who brings both passion and tension to his quest. In each installment of this enthralling series, Bruno confronts complex themes of loyalty, tradition, and the delicate balance of small-town life amid dark secrets. With every twist and turn, Walker crafts rich narratives filled with delectable French cuisine, compelling relationships, and the idyllic yet occasionally sinister backdrop of rural France. What sinister forces will Bruno uncover as he delves deeper into a web of deception, and how will his revived connection with a former flame complicate his mission? Join Bruno on a journey where every crime unravels the heart of a village and exposes the true essence of its people—will he be able to protect his beloved community from the shadows that threaten to envelop it?
