The Killing Tide

Superb...Bannelec has concocted the perfect blend of police procedural and travelogue.--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

As captivating and harrowing as its predecessors. An intriguingly constructed mystery...Bannalec's latest delivers on every level.--Booklist (starred review)

Dupin's drive to catch the killer quickly is balanced by his desire to enjoy the local cafes and the breathtaking Breton coast just a little bit longer. And as usual, justice triumphs. More of Bannalec's winning formula: a healthy chunk of Brittany with a bracing dash of murder.--Kirkus Reviews

Praise for the series:

Bannelec's Breton adventures are some of the best French local color going, with a deft blend of puzzle, personality, and description of the indescribable.--Kirkus Reviews on The Fleur de Sel Murders

Well-drawn, complex characters, the lovingly described countryside, and the area's culinary bounty make this a winner. Some fans will be inspired to take their next vacation in Brittany.--Publishers Weekly on The Fleur de Sel Murders

Jean-Luc Bannalec... has channeled his affection for the westernmost region of France into a charming first mystery. --New York Times Book Review on Death in Brittany

A setting to die for... The star of the mystery, though, is Brittany. --Booklist (starred review) on Death in Brittany
