Tips and Resources From Your Martin Walker Book Club Friends:

There’s always a fine glass of wine to enjoy and a murder to solve in the French countryside alongside Bruno, Chief of Police. Do you find yourself wanting Bruno to cook you a gourmet dinner like he does his friends? Can you picture yourself living in St. Denis (minus the murders, of course…or maybe not)? Time to grab a fresh baguette and a glass of Bruno’s homemade vin noir and enjoy a visit.

“I’ve always thought that a little judicious hospitality was an essential lubricant in most human affairs.”

Martin Walker, A Taste for Vengeance
Sheri C.
“Even when Bruno and his friends are busy solving murders they always make time for a hearty, delicious meal and a glass of wine together. How civilised! I know I’d like to pay them a visit.”
