Synopsis

“Former Manhattan caterer Faith Fairchild and her family find mystery in Lyons, France in this engrossing adventure” in the beloved cozy series (Publishers Weekly). Satisfying her hunger for epicurean adventure in the French provinces, small-town caterer and minister’s wife Faith Fairchild decides to throw the perfect dinner party. But during cleanup, after the last guest has departed her gastronomical triumph, she encounters something neither expected nor welcome: a dead body lying in her vestibule. Unfortunately it doesn’t help la belle americaine’s credibility when the corpse vanishes before the local gendarmes arrive. But Faith realizes that, though the police refuse to take her seriously, a killer just might. And if she doesn’t get to the bottom of this fiendish French conundrum, Faith’s successful feast could end up being her last.

All of the French in this book took away from the storyline… But at other times it was kind of interesting to see how similar French words are to Spanish or English. I also didn’t realize I skipped book in the series… So now I’m gonna go back to book 3.......more

Goodreads review by Beth on September 17, 2017

I continue to be charmed by these rather unusual books that seems to me to be a perfect cross between a cozy and a rather gritty murder mystery series. This entry has Faith, a gourmet chef and former successful NY caterer and her minister husband Tom in Lyon, France with their 3 year old son. Tom (a......more
