Indeed, into the first novel "Murder in Périgord", Bruno the Chief of Police lives at Saint-Denis which is a mix between some diferents villages like Le Bugue and other around.  He resolves a murder thanks to his knowledges of the territory and also thanks to his relationships.

With the success of this first polar, Martin Walker continued writing a saga : "Dark Harvest" , "Black Diamond" , “The Crowded Grave” , “The Devil’s cave”, … (some of them are translated into over 15 languages).

Moreover, in each german book is inserted a small Dordogne travel guide with the best addresses of Martin Wallker ... How to discover our beautiful region as a fictional hero ...

A website dedicated to Bruno is also available on the web and a television serie adapted from novels should appear on German television.
