Summary
France's favourite country cop, Bruno, faces a dangerous threat to the town he polices and the people he protects. Loved by millions, the Dordogne Mysteries are the perfect combination of mystery and escapism.
The event of the Périgord tourist season is to be the re-enactment of the liberation of the historic town of Sarlat from the English in 1370. But it all goes wrong when the man playing the part of the French general is almost killed in the heat of the action.
The immediate question for chief of police Bruno Courrèges is was this an accident - or deliberate? The stakes rise when Bruno learns that the man, Kerquelin, was running Frenchelon, the secret French electronic intelligence base nearby, after being recruited from a brilliant Silicon Valley career. His old Silicon Valley colleagues have been invited to stay at the luxurious local chateau of Rouffillac as his guests to enjoy the Sarlat show.
As he investigates, Bruno discovers that Kerquelin's wound was faked, that he is alive and well and secretly negotiating a massive deal to build a semi-conductor industry in France. But then a whole new and dangerous player emerges, determined to nip the deal in the bud.

Wonderful as always
Another superb story; exciting, heartwarming and perfectly narrated by Peter Noble. Too short! Too long awaited. More, more, more!

Classic Bruno
Loved this and delighted to see that I can soon get the "Bruno" cookbook. Delighted too that the story takes into account that Bruno's readers as well as his friends are finding the whole Isabel thing quite tedious now 😁

Cosy political thriller
Surprising geopolitical detail in an otherwise familiar tale of Bruno and his dog, his friends, his cooking and his love life. Is Bruno headed for marital bliss in the next book?

Over too quickly
My only criticism is that it should be twice as long! When’s the next one?

A wonderful listen
The insights into international politics provided a brilliant backdrop for an intriguing story which saw the return of some previous characters and storylines and introduced some interesting new ones also. As always the Dordogne brought the colour and flavours of the region to the story whilst Peter Nobles narration was outstanding as always.
