A bumper collection of delightful stories featuring Bruno, Chief of Police and France' s favourite cop, all set in the beautiful Dordogne valley and the ravishing Perigord region of the south west. Here is a landscape of meandering rivers with medieval castles overlooking their banks, of lush hillsides and spreading vineyards, of delicious local wines and world renowned cuisine. With titles like ' Bruno and the Chocolate War' ; ' Bruno and the Birthday Lunch' ; ' Oystercatcher' ; ' A Market Tale' and ' Fifty Million Bubbles' , you may be sure that champagne and gastronomy will feature as well as cosy crime in ' Dangerous Vacation' . Bruno strides through these tales, keeping calm. settling local disputes and keeping safe his beloved town of St Denis. Only on one occasion does he panic: in ' Bruno' s Challenge' , his friend Ivan, proprietor and chef of the town' s popular eatery, suddenly collapses on the eve of a large anniversary dinner, and he asks Bruno to take over the restaurant. After a few protests followed by some deep breaths, the inimitable Bruno meets his challenge, as always.
