I just finished Bruno Chief of Police. I expected I would enjoy it, but it far exceeded my expectations. It was a good mystery, but the way that Walker addressed the paradoxes associated with war crimes committed in the distant past was quite brave. The protagonist's ambivalence and ultimate decisions well thought out.
Similar matters have arisen where I live over the years and I've always had difficulty sorting out my own thoughts on the matter. In any case, this is a great little book and I look forward to reading others in the series.
