"A mystery of the French Countryside"--Cover.
Originally published: London : Quercus, 2010.
Chief of police Bruno Courrèges investigates the possible adulteration of the truffles of France's Périgord region with a cheaper Chinese version. Then, a Vietnamese family's stall at the Saint-Denis market is wrecked, and Bruno wonders if this is the beginning of an Asian gang war. Things become more complex when Bruno's hunting partner and former top-level military man is found brutally murdered.
