Devil's Cave: A Mystery of the French Countryside
Devil's Cave: A Mystery of the French Countryside | Martin Walker
8 posts | 14 read | 6 to read
The sixth installment in the delightful, internationally acclaimed series featuring Chief of Police Bruno. It's spring in St. Denis. The village choir is preparing for its Easter concert, the wildflowers are blooming, and among the lazy whorls of the river a dead woman is found floating in a boat. This means another case for Bruno, the town's cherished chief of police. With the discovery of sinister markings and black candles near the body, it seems to Bruno that the occult might be involved. And as questions mount--most notably about a troubling real estate proposal in the region and the sudden reappearance of an elderly countess--Bruno and his colleagues are drawn ever closer to a climactic showdown in the Gouffre de Colombac: the place locals call the Devil's Cave.

#DevilsCave #stalactites #stalagmites #titleinbook

The title appears when the discovery that the cave contains clues to the dead woman found floating down the river in a boat.Atmospheric with the Cave‘s dim light,the feeling of disappearing into the dank , damp earth, stalactites,formed by mineral deposits,hang there pointed formations from the cave‘s ceilings, while stalagmites form mounds from the same minerals and rise from the cave‘s floor.

kspenmoll The scenes in the cave brought vivid reminders of my visit to Luray Caves in Virginia. Although commercialized, it was so beautiful & awe inspiring. 3y
mavey Wow! This is riveting! Stacked! 3y
Scochrane26 I‘m not a big fan of caves anymore, but if you like them, you should come see Mammoth Cave in Ky. 3y

4.5 ⭐ Book 5 of series Bruno is at it again. There's a dead woman floating on a punt in the river in St. Denis and he doesn't know her identity. From that mystery to an Satanic ritual, a cave and a development promised to the littles town that isnt what it seems to be, Bruno has his hands full again. I love the food, the wine and the settings of this series
