The Crowded Grave
Millions of fans worldwide have discovered the world of Bruno, Chief of Police, and the charming Perigord town that he looks after. Even in the depths of rural France, murder is never far away.
Life in the South of France isn't full of the charming peace that you might imagine. In St Denis, a summit in a local chateau is threatened by Basque separatists, animal rights campaigners are causing havoc, and it's about to get worse.
A local archaeological team unearths a well-preserved skeleton. Yet it's a lot more recent than they'd hoped β boasting a Swatch on its wrist and a bullet-hole in its skull.
Meanwhile, an influx of visitors makes Saint Denis unusually crowded, and the key to the body appears to lie with one of these outsiders. Bruno must think fast and keep his wits about him in order to work out how these events are connected. Especially if the answer lies a little closer to home.
The Crowded Grave by Martin Walker offers readers an engaging mix of mystery and intrigue, set in the picturesque yet perilous backdrop of southern France.
