Description

Saint-Sauver, home to Richard Ainsworth and Valrie d'Oray's detective agency, is celebrating the 25th anniversary of its town twinning with Anglethorp Spa in Lincolnshire. Events are planned, a huge brocante, street parties and the centrepiece, an exhibition boules tournament between the two towns and a team of international boules all-stars.

Everything is going well, the sun shines, the wine flows and the entente is very cordiale.

Until the mayor turns up dead in an antique dresser having apparently been killed twice. Inevitably Richard and Valrie have very different views on the subject and engage in their own battle, who will solve the crime first

Reviews

'I love this series, and goodness knows we need the laughs right now. Its as if Agatha Raisin had moved to France instead of the Cotswolds. Ian's comic touch is as deft as ever' S. J. Bennett, author of The Windsor Knot

'A cracking good read' Jack Dee

It was an utter joy to be back with Richard and Valrie in the beauty of France. This is a brilliantly fun addition to a wonderful series and I cant wait for the next one C. L. Miller, author of The Antique Hunter's Guide to Murder
