The friend of an important family has died suddenly. Although it
appears to have been of natural causes, St. Denis Police Chief Bruno is
not 100% convinced. He is also shocked when the body is quickly
cremated.
Later, Bruno finds out that the man has a large trust fund in
Lichtenstein, and a mysterious heir. The case begins to take on an air
of mystery.
Bruno’s mind is forced elsewhere when a major accident takes the wife of
a prominent lawyer. The accident had occurred close to a place where a
woman allowed deer to roam freely. It appears that a deer had caused
the accident, and now people are up in arms. The event quickly becomes a
political hot potato.
Things take a drastic change when Bruno is attacked by a man with an
axe. Fortunately his army training kicks in and he manages to take the
man prisoner, but not without himself being injured. Was this an
attempt to stop the investigation from proceeding any further?
Author Martin Walker’s novel includes international intrigue that could
destroy people’s integrity. But will murder prevent that from
happening? A very good read, which was hard to put down.
