    About this audiobook

    Bestselling author Martin Walker pens stories filled with small-town ambience and charming characters. In The Devil's Cave, police chief Bruno CourrEges is investigating a murder as the tiny French village of St. Denis prepares for Easter. An unknown woman--dead, naked, and bearing the marks of a black magic ritual--is found in a boat floating down the River VEzEre. With the townsfolk terrified, clues quickly lead Bruno to the Gouffre de Colombac--the Devil's Cave.

      Martin Walker's 'Bruno Courrèges, Chief of Police' books should come with a warning label saying: "May provoke cravings for foie gras, fresh croissants and good wine."This is the 5th of the Bruno series of books and was just released in the UK as of early August 2012. I've become such a Bruno fan in the space of the past 2 months that I ordered this one online since it will likely be a year before the North American edition is released.The main plot involves the finding of a dead body found floating down the river in a punt showing indications of the aftermath of a satanic ritual. Meanwhile Bruno is anonymously alerted to a case of domestic abuse and his patron, the Mayor of St. Denis, is involved with a development scheme to build a high-end holiday village in the outskirts of the community. Many others of the St. Denis and Perigord cast are back including a new romantic temptation for Bruno and even a possible love interest for the Baron.I enjoyed this one quite as much as the others although the ending was quite shocking and distressing in some ways (no, not as distressing as the end to No. 4, if you know what I mean).
