In the Périgord region of France, Bruno, chief of police, uses his investigative skills to solve a murder that took place 30 years earlier during the Cold War era. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Robin Whitten discuss how narrator Robert Ian Mackenzie does a wonderful job bringing Bruno and his friends to life. Using authentic-sounding pronunciations of French names, he is particularly strong during the descriptions of Bruno’s meal preparations. He shines at injecting warmth and humanity into his portrayal of the believable and likable Bruno. The result is an enjoyable and often mouthwatering listen.
