"Roll over Maigret. Commissaire Dupin has
arrived." —M.C. Beaton on Death in Brittany
"Very satisfying…along the lines of
Martin Walker’s novels set in Dordogne, or M.L.
Longworth’s Aix-en-Provence mysteries." —
Booklist on Murder on Brittany Shores
The Missing Corpse is
internationally bestselling author, Jean-Luc
Bannalec’s fourth novel in the Commissaire Dupin
series. It’s picturesque, suspenseful, and the next
best thing to a trip to Brittany.
Along
the picturesque Belon River, home of the world famous oyster
beds, between steep cliffs, ominous forests and the Atlantic
Ocean, a stubborn elderly film actress discovers a corpse.
By the time Commissaire Dupin arrives at the scene, the body
has disappeared. A little while later, he receives a phone
call from the mystical hills of Monts d'Arree, where legends
of fairies and the devil abound: another unidentified body
has turned up. Dupin quickly realizes this may be his most
difficult and confounding case yet, with links to celtic
myths, a sand theft operation, and mysterious ancient druid
cults.
