From the Dordogne Mysteries series. The body of a French Muslim policeman is discovered in the woods near St Denis. The victim had contacted Bruno, the local town cop for help only hours before, but Bruno's sometime boss the Brigadier doesn't see this investigation as a priority. Meanwhile a Muslim youth named Sami arrives 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 and a media firestorm aren't far behind. Amidst pressure from his bosses, Bruno must find his own way to protect his town and its people. The setting in the Périgord is so atmospheric you won't want to leave in this novel (previously called 'Children of War'). Walker is brilliant at capturing the murderous charms of rural France in his undeniably delicious series of novels. 358pp, paperback.
