Publisher Description
Life in post-apocalyptic France has finally begun to settle down.
The cafés all have candles, the bakery ovens are all coal-fired and reliance on electricity and electronics are now a thing of the past. So when the Provençal village of Chabanel decides to go ahead with its annual pastry contest, it’s a shock to everyone when one of the celebrity judges down from Paris dies a gruesome—and very public—death.
When a plate of poisoned chocolate éclairs turns out to be the murder weapon, it’s up to expat and amateur sleuth Jules Hooker to prove that the little old ladies who made them aren’t the murderers.
Because much in the same way that Jules can’t stop after one profiterole, it soon becomes clear that this murderer doesn’t intend to stop with one dead chef.
Customer Reviews
Bad Eclair Day
As usual this book did not disappoint. I can almost feel as if I am in post EMP France. The characters are amazing! Poor Jules Hooker has really stood up to the plate and has learned to love Bechanel. Luc sounds awesome and the twins, oh my! Susan Kieran-Lewis really knows how to weave a story. I don’t want these books to end!
Interesting twists and turns
Story has potential as unique setting is thought provoking. Jim was the biggest surprise!
Editing and character development need work.
At times tough to follow as characters are referred to different names at various points in the story.
