One of the main events of the Sarlat tourist season is the re-enactment of the liberation of the town from the English in 1370 and Bruno’s there to see the show with some friends. It’s all been very carefully choreographed but goes badly wrong when, Kerquelin, the man playing one of the main characters is seriously injured when he departs from the script. Luckily, his doctor is there and the man is whisked away in a helicopter. A local doctor (and friend of Bruno) wonders about his chances of survival but - as he’s a senior government employee, the man who runs Frenchelon - the military has stepped in. One daughter lives nearby and another, who lives in California, is flying in with some of her father’s friends for a pre-arranged holiday.
