Bruno is the chief of police in a small French tourist town. He fits the town and it fits him. He’s happy and contented and has no dreams of moving upward in police ranks or back to the cities. He’s a former soldier who survived the horrors of Bosnia, so he’s had enough of misery.
But when an Arab man is found stabbed to death in his home in St Denis with a swastika carved into his stomach, Bruno must work with the city police to find the murderer.
This is a delightful cozy, despite the sound of the murder. I found it very French in that it pays as much attention to wine, cheese and pate as it does to the solving of the murder.
But if you like pat answers and clearly evil villains, perhaps you should give this a pass.
