It is spring in the Dordogne, the choir is practicing for the Easter service in the church in the small town of St. Denis. Ah, but into the bud a worm has come. More specifically, the nude body of a woman is spotted floating in a punt down the river. And Bruno, Chief of Police, is once again called upon to find the truth of what happened. Was it suicide or was it a part of a Satanic ritual?
Complications to the peaceful life in the form of plans to build a vacation village and golf course with a sports complex are thrown in for good measure. While Pamela is out of the country taking care of her sick mother, the foolish (IMHO) Isabelle returns to St. Denis bringing an adorable puppy to replace the much loved Gigi who was killed in a previous book. Add in a little history of the French Resistance for good measure. And course, Bruno cooks for friends (and lovers) while solving the mysteries and puzzles of his beloved St. Denis. If you love food and France and a good mystery, well, you really must come to St. Denis and meet Bruno, Chief of Police.
