In the next installment of the Bruno, Chief of Police series, a newcomer to St. Denis is found dead at the home of one of Bruno's best friends--and for once, Bruno feels as though he is too close to the case to investigate, until it becomes clear that he's the only person who can solve the crime.
After Bruno sees he's missed several phone calls from his longtime neighbor Pamela, he has no idea what to expect. He's shocked to hear that she's found her new lodger on her back patio, brutally murdered. Bruno knows that Pamela isn't capable of killing anyone, but then who's the culprit? And what's the motive? The victim had only just moved to town to take a job at the local nursing home. She had no enemies in the village--but no friends, either.
Bruno decides that he can't be impartial where Pamela is involved, so the force assigns the case instead to their rising star rookie, Fabien. Bruno is happy for Fabien to take the lead. Lately, Bruno's been distracted: by his faltering relationship, by a meddlesome film crew that's descended on the Dordogne, by a group of opinionated small business owners Bruno wants to help to organize a logistically complicated night market. He can't seem to catch a break.
But when Fabien realizes that the victim is connected to his own past, Bruno steps back in to help. The village has never felt more crowded, and the clock is ticking: Will Bruno and Fabien be able to catch a killer?
