Evolution ⋆ Martin Walker ⋆ Vom Werdegang des Menschen
Einst stiegen die Menschen von den Bäumen herab, suchten in Höhlen Zuflucht und lernten Feuer zu machen. Das Feuer wärmte sie, eignete sich zum Kochen und brachte ein wenig Licht in die Dunkelheit nach Sonnenuntergang. Als Nächstes lernten die Menschen aus gegorenen Früchten und Beeren Alkohol zu gewinnen, der die Dunkelheit, die sich im Winter schrecklich lange hinzog, etwas erträglicher machte. So begann die Zivilisation der Menschen! Es ist festzustellen: Die Menschen betäubten ihre Sinne und nahmen damit Einfluss auf ihre Wirklichkeit.

Martin Walker - To Kill a Troubadour
Summer could be enjoyable and light hearted but then, the cosy Périgord region is caught in Spain’s trouble with Catalonia’s independence movement. “Les Troubadours”, a local folk group, have published a song supporting autonomy for the region that shares their cultural heritage. The song goes viral and soon not only the Spanish government but also shady groups become aware of the poet and the band. When the police find a sniper’s bullet and a stolen car in the woods, the know that the situation is much more serious than they thought and that people are in real danger as the Troubadours are about to perform a large concert.
Martin Walker continues his series around the French countryside chief of police Bruno Courrèges. Even though also the 15th Dordogne mystery offers a lot to recognise from the former novels, “To Kill a Troubadour” is much more political and takes up a current real life topic. Apart from this, you’ll get exactly what you’d expect from the series: a lot of food to indulge in, history of the region and the French countryside where everybody seems to be friends with everybody.
One would expect the life of a countryside policeman to be rather unspectacular and slow, however, this could not be farer away from Bruno’s reality. Not only do big conflicts come to his cosy province, but also a case of domestic violence demands his full attention.
What I appreciated most, like in other instalments of the series before, was how the cultural heritage was integrated into the plot and teaches about the history you along the way in a perfectly dosed manner.
Full of suspense while offering the well-known French countryside charm, a wonderful read to look forward to summer holidays in France.

September-Lektüre. Stellvertretend quasi, denn von Martin Walker habe ich diesen Monat alle restlichen Bruno-Krimis gelesen (es fehlen im Bild: Delikatessen / Femme fatale / Eskapaden / Reiner Wein / Provokateure / Grand Prix / Revanche). Die Gamache-Serie ist super, das Wunschformular meiner Lieblingsbibliothek wird grad systematisch mit allen Neuauflagen auf deutsch "bestückt". Zu schade nur, dass es immer ein paar Monate dauert, bis wieder etwas erscheint - und warum für die englische Originalversion bezahlen, wenn man Geduld lernen kann 😇 Nach all den Krimis ist wieder etwas substantiellere Lektüre angesagt, aber mehr dazu dann im Oktober-Post... . . . #whatiread2019 #lektüre #martinwalker #louisepenny #gamache #lesenmachtglücklich #lesemonat https://www.instagram.com/p/B3i-mStnzVt/?igshid=ux7tzt2znpe9

My new reading obsession, thanks to my cousin Sally (who never fails with her recommendations) and her friend Penny, who first turned Sally on to it. Almost finished the first volume. Anxious for the next. #goodbook #bruno #reading #oneoflifesgreatestpleasures #martinwalker (at Laburnum Park Historic District)

Martin Walker - The Coldest Case
It’s been thirty years that Bruno’s boss J.-J. has been haunting the murderer of an unknown man found in the forest. This cold case seems unsolvable, nobody missed someone and no item which could help to identify him was ever found. Yet, as technology advances, so do the police’s possibilities. By the help of an expert in face reconstruction, they try to remodel his looks, at the same time, quite unexpectedly, another DNA search shows a hit. While J.-J. is happy that his longest case might come to a close, the lovely Périgord region is threatened by fires. While the inhabitants fear the worst, this comes on a very political level with J.-.J.’s cold case: the murderer he has been looking for might be linked to even more serious crimes and thus, national security is suddenly threatened.
 With Martin Walker’s series about Bruno Courrèges, you always know what you will get: it is not simply a cosy crime novel located in a beautiful region which finds its deserved place in the book by providing a lot of good food and impressive nature, but also a case which starts out as a minor incident and suddenly develops into something totally unexpected. These by now well-known ingredients also make the 14th instalment an enjoyable holiday read.
 What I found most fascinating in this novel were the technical explanations of how you can infer from a skull how the person has looked like. This technique might be useful not just for artistic and museological purposes but also as shown for investigative aims. It is also a clear signal that no deed is unsolvable and that with modern technology, the perfect crime might not be that perfect anymore.
 As a German, I was aware of the Rosenholz papers which surprisingly come up in the novel. Surely a rather deplorable part of our history but still offering a lot of food for speculation even today. So again, nothing from the past is ever really over.
 All in all, a pleasant cosy crime novel which makes you feel like on holiday and enjoy the atmosphere of France’s countryside.
