Martin Walker’s novels starring Chief of Police Bruno Courrèges are a boon to Francophiles and mystery lovers around the world. In The Crowded Grave, Bruno is up to his ears in trouble after a local archaeological dig unearths a corpse with a bullet in its head. Further complicating matters are a meddlesome local magistrate, animal rights activists, and a missing professor - not to mention two lovely ladies vying for Bruno’s affections.

It begins with a local archaeological dig finding three human bodies of men executed about thirty years ago, progressed through some incredible political silliness, and ended with a request for military intervention. A real thrill ride this time!
Voice actor Robert Ian MacKenzie is excellent with interpretation and character definition, and superior in the rolling tones of French pronunciations.

The story is unique - combining Basque terrorists, foie gras, love of animals, French countryside, and fabulous meals. Simply amazing!
The narration was spot-on. I need the next book now. That ending was a little too blunt.
Fabulous!

Martin Walker has become one of my favorites...along with Michael Connelly, Elizabeth George and Diana Gabaldon.
I have read and reread Martin’s Bruno books. Now available on Audible with the extra bonus of Sir Ian McClellan...incomparable!
The only problem is that Martin’s books are so well researched and well written, they are not available as frequently as I would like.
I cannot wait for the next one due in 2018!

Interesting "cozy" mystery set in French countryside

As usual, Bruno works to keep people doing right or get them back to it instead of “catching” wrongdoers. The places and characters now familiar acquaintances in a pleasant world. Good food, too!
Another delightful rumor adventure
