The French Market Murder
The third book in the utterly charming and addictive cosy crime novel in the French Village Mystery series!
Sacre bleu! As the local village market is in full swing, get ready to stock up on the best products the south of France has to offer, from mouth-watering pastries, to fragrant lavender soap, and second-hand books... and another mystery for amateur sleuth Zoe Pascal to solve!
The delightful town of Sainte-Catherine, nestled in the heart of Provence, is preparing for the May bank holiday. The cobbled village square will be packed with stalls of the French market, selling wines, cheese, and other local products. Zoe Pascal, who runs the bookshop, is ready for a busy weekend recommending books to tourists and locals alike.
But the festivities have barely begun before Zoe and her loyal companion, Russell the dog, discover a body in an abandoned house behind her bookshop.
The police are quick to decide that they're investigating a murder. And as they're unable to identify the body, they recruit Zoe to help solve the case.
Is there a killer lurking in the bustling streets of Sainte-Catherine? Who in the village is hiding something? It's up to Zoe to find out, before time runs out...
