International Dagger Award shortlisted author of The Murderer in Ruins , Cay Rademacher, delivers a beautifully atmospheric new story with a captivating main character in Murderous Mistral: A Provence Mystery . Capitaine Roger Blanc, an investigator with the anti-corruption unit of the French Gendarmerie, was a bit too successful in his investigations. He finds himself removed from Paris to the south of France, far away from political power. Or so it would seem.
