In his latest adventure Bruno France's favourite country cop investigates a long-buried war
crime and faces a devastating flood that threatens the town he polices and the people he loves.
'FRENCH TOURISM SHOULD RAISE A GLASS TO WALKER'S DORDOGNE MYSTERIES' Daily Mail The long arm
of history reaches into the present in Bruno's latest case when three sets of bones are
discovered buried deep in the woods outside the Dordogne town of St Denis. It appears that the
remains have lain there since World War 2. Bruno must investigate who the bones belong to and
whether their burial amounts to a war crime. Bruno has other concerns too. After weeks of
heavy autumn rain the normally tranquil Dordogne river has risen to record levels
compromising the upriver dams that control the Vezere that flows through St Denis bringing the
threat of a devastating flood. As ever Bruno must rely on his wits tenacity and people
skills to ensure that past wrongs don't result in present violence and to keep his little town
and its inhabitants safe from harm.
