When a local’s death is linked to a Russian oligarch and his multinational conglomerate, Bruno faces one of his toughest cases yet, one that brings together a conniving French businessman and a rock star—and, of course, Bergerac red and white.
It’s summer in the Dordogne. The heirs of a modest Périgordian sheep farmer learn upon his death that they have been disinherited, and their father’s estate sold to an insurance company in return for a policy that would have placed him in a five-star retirement home for the rest of his life. His children are immediately suspicious of the uncharacteristically lavish arrangement. Their inquest raises other unsavory questions about his passing: Was it a natural death? Was there foul play? Bruno begins an investigation that leads him to several shadowy companies owned by a Russian billionaire. The companies are based in Cyprus, Malta, and Luxembourg, but Bruno finds a way into the organization in France: a recently relocated notaire and an insurance agent. As Bruno pursues this ominious lead, the Russian’s daughter turns up in the Périgord, further complicating the case. All leads to a deadly denouement at the château of the rock star.
It takes all of Bruno’s resolve and quick thinking to untangle the truth. But, as ever—Bruno makes time for lunch.
“Narrator Robert Ian Mackenzie returns to perform the 13th entry in this mystery series set in Dordogne, France. Bruno is more than the chief of police–he’s a friend, a good neighbor, an animal lover, and a gourmet cook. …. Mackenzie takes an easy pace, matching life in the French countryside and allowing listeners the space to savor the region’s beauty, food, and wine. He wisely employs various accents only as needed to distinguish characters and set the mood. Bruno’s personal life, which is as important as the crimes, gives this audiobook wide appeal.” � AudioFile 2020
