Death and Croissants: A Novel (Follet Valley Mysteries)

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
