The Shooting at Chateau Rock

Narrator Robert Ian Mackenzie returns to perform the 13th entry in this mystery series set in Dordogne, France. Bruno is more than the chief of police--he's a friend, a good neighbor, an animal lover, and a gourmet cook. In this outing, he investigates a shady retirement community, the possible murder of a local sheep farmer, and a questionable insurance company, all of which seem to have connections to the Russian mob. Mackenzie takes an easy pace, matching life in the French countryside and allowing listeners the space to savor the region's beauty, food, and wine. He wisely employs various accents only as needed to distinguish characters and set the mood. Bruno's personal life, which is as important as the crimes, gives this audiobook wide appeal.
