This title is number 3 in the Bruno, Chief of Police series by Martin Walker. Bruno Courreges is a police chief in the small fictional village of St. Denis, set in the Perigord region of France. A skeleton was found buried in the region, more recent than others being excavated from the Cro-Magnon era. Bruno must find the identity of the dead person, along with providing back-up security for a meeting of the French and Spanish ministers in a nearby chateau. Add in vandals damaging locals’ property over the foie gras debate (geese being force fed to create the delicacy) and you have a picture of a typical day in the life of the police chief. If you like French cuisine, descriptions of Bruno’s gourmet cooking skills are plentiful throughout the novel. It’s the next best thing to being there…
