The Body in the Castle
Well
Martin Walker
Claudia
Muller is an American art student who has come to the Pèrigord
region of France to study the collection of a local notable, Monsieur
de Bourdeille. She is welcomed by the collector and everyone else in
the area and well-liked by all. But when her body is found at the
bottom of a well at the local castle Bruno, Chief of Police is tasked
with finding out what happened.
The Body in the Castle Well is a mystery rich in detail, full of historical information which provides an added layer of intrigue. The magical atmosphere full of food, friends, and the glorious French countryside will no doubt leave readers wanting more. Even when there is a murder to solve there is still time for a hearty lunch and a ride through local trails on Bruno's favorite horse Hector, with his basset hound, Balzac trotting eagerly behind.
This is a series that I have come to know and love over the last few years. It's as satisfying as a good glass of wine, and I always find myself waiting for the next installment. For those wanting a good mystery and a taste of France, this is an excellent place to start.
