He divides his time between Washington, D.C., and the Dordogne.

Reviews

"With Bruno around, all's right with the world." -The New York Times Book Review

"Walker's Bruno novels are good mysteries, but they're also travelogues and culinary experiences, history lessons and nature guides." -Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

"Unashamedly lavished with warmth. . . . The ubiquitous atmosphere of [Walker's] books is of undisguised affection for the towns, villages, their people, their wine and their food of the Dordogne." -Forbes

"Rich in atmosphere and personality. . . . It's impossible to read a Bruno novel without getting hungry and thirsty." -The New York Times

"Consistently excellent . . . I really want to know Bruno, to eat at his dinner table with his charming and entertaining guests, to play fetch with his basset hound, Balzac . . . I really want to be Bruno." -Bruce Tierney, BookPage (starred review)

"[A] deliciously food-and-wine-soaked world. . . . [With] a cast of characters guaranteed to charm." -Wine Spectator

"Bruno Courreges may be France's . . . answer to dapper . . . James Bond." -Minneapolis Star Tribune

"[A] charming French village, great food, eccentric characters, and a mystery to nudge things along. . . . Savory indeed." -The Seattle Times

"Falling-off-the-bone French at its ne plus ultra." -Kirkus Reviews

"[An] elegant series. . . . Francophiles will relish the evocative descriptions of the Perigord region and its cuisine. Distinctive characters complement the intricate mystery." -Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Highly satisfying." -The Boston Globe
