Title: Bruno’s Challenge
Review: Walker continues his wonderful and long running Bruno series with this installment of short stories. Brilliantly se in the Perigord/Dordogne region of France and overlaid with a fantastic sense of place, history and culture- Bruno carries out his Chief of Police duties whilst saving damsels in distress, raising half the children in town and coking gastronomically extraordinary meals with his collection of eccentric pals. This series has been going for almost 20 years, and this is just a nice addition with little vignettes from throughout the life of the stories. If you are a serial reader, start at the beginning. If not, this might be up your alley-short, sweet and delightful.
