We dive into the picturesque Périgord of the likable village policeman Bruno. The crime novels of Scottish author Martin Walker, who lives part-time in Périgord, have long become cult classics.

In his new novel "Bredouille – der achtzehnte Fall für Bruno, Chef de police," Bruno finds the body of Monique, a successful businesswoman, at a scenic viewpoint. Three farewell letters lie on the passenger seat – the case seems clear. But Bruno cannot shake off an uneasy feeling.

At the same time, insidious rumors are spreading in Saint-Denis, and soon his own position is at stake.

Despite everything, Bruno remains Bruno: he does not miss out on a delicious meal in delightful female company and sets out to discover what really happened to Monique...

"Bredouille" is nominated for the 32nd ›Gourmand Award‹ in 2026.

Martin Walker, born in 1947 in Scotland, is a writer, historian, and political journalist. He lives in Washington and Périgord and worked for 25 years for the British daily newspaper ›The Guardian‹. He is now on the board of a think tank for top managers in Washington. His ›Bruno‹ novels are published in 18 languages.

Admission: 6:30 PM
