520    "When a musician's new song hits a political nerve, he 
       finds himself in the crosshairs of Spanish nationalists' 
       ire, and it's up to Bruno to track down the extremists who
       seem ready to take deadly measures, in another delightful 
       installment of the internationally acclaimed series 
       featuring Bruno, Chief of Police. Les Troubadours, a folk 
       music group that Bruno has long supported, go viral with 
       their new number, "Song for Catalonia," when the Spanish 
       government suddenly bans the song. The songwriter, Joel 
       Martin, is a local enthusiast for the old Occitan language
       of Périgord and the medieval troubadours, and he 
       sympathizes with the Catalan bid for independence. The 
       success of his song provokes outrage among extreme Spanish
       nationalists. Then, in a stolen car found on a Périgord 
       back road, police discover a distinctive bullet for a 
       state-of-the-art sniper's rifle that can kill at three 
       kilometers, and they fear that Joel might be the intended 
       target. The French and Spanish governments agree to mount 
       a joint operation to stop the assailants, and Bruno is the
       local man on the spot who mobilizes his resources to track
       them down. While Bruno tries to keep the peace, his friend
       Florence reaches out for help. Her abusive ex-husband is 
       about to be paroled from prison and she fears he will 
       return to reclaim their children. Will Bruno and Florence 
       be able to prevent this unwanted visit? Despite the 
       pressures, there is always time for Bruno to savor les 
       plaisirs of the Dordogne around the table with friends"--
