Death and Croissants

Description

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:
