Synopsis
"Laugh-out-loud caper." -- Shelf Awareness, Starred Review "A fast-paced, witty story for those who enjoy dry British humor." -- Library Journal Meet Richard Ainsworth: an almost divorced part time B&B owner, part time film historian, full time self-deprecator. Hoping to continue running his B&B in the quiet Val de Follet, he has no idea of its hidden intrigue, from the mafia to swingers, to the peddling of (il)legal grape seeds. His quiet has flown the coop on a fateful afternoon with a bloody handprint, a missing guest, and one dead Ava Gardner (beloved hen). Death and Croissants is an unputdownable, hilarious mystery perfect for fans of Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club . What readers are saying: "Richard Osman meets Sherlock Holmes rampaging through the charming Loire Valley in this raucously funny book. I loved it." "A light, very funny mystery with appealing characters in a wonderful French countryside." "Oh wow, this was funny. This one just knocks it out of the park." "A story full of interesting and diverse characters told with lots of humor." "The author gives you everything you want in a humorous, witty mystery that chases you through all the twists and turns with murder, mafia, and mayhem.", A witty, wine-soaked cozy mystery for fans of Richard Osman, Agatha Raisin, and anyone who prefers their murders with a splash of charm and a hen named Ava Gardner. Welcome to the Loire Valley: home to rolling vineyards, sleepy villages... and the occasional dead body. Richard Ainsworth wanted nothing more than quiet days running his B&B, rewatching classic films, and avoiding confrontation. But when a guest vanishes--leaving behind a bloody handprint and a very dead chicken--his peaceful life is upended in the most ridiculous way. Armed with only film trivia, anxious instincts, and an exasperatingly glamorous French sidekick, Richard must stumble through a mystery that's as absurd as it is addictive. Death and Croissants is the first in the bestselling Follet Valley Mysteries-- a cozy crime series full of oddball suspects, unpredictable twists, and sly, irresistible wit. Praise for Death and Croissants: "A fast-paced, witty story for those who enjoy dry British humor." --Library Journal "Laugh-out-loud caper." --Shelf Awareness, Starred Review
