Summary

Boston girl Molly Sutton moves to a small village in France to lick her wounds after a divorce. Castillac is charming, the croissants amazing, the wine delectable. Molly's new life is full of contentment, if a bit short on excitement.

But then a girl goes missing...and Molly's world gets turned upside down.

Truth be told, no one in the village feels safe. They struggle to believe such darkness could exist in a friendly village, where people spend most of their time thinking about nothing more frightening than what to have for lunch.

And when the missing girl's distraught parents come to stay at Molly's bed and breakfast, she is drawn into the case, like it or not.

Will Molly and the French detective figure out what happened to Amy Bennett before someone else disappears?

Dreadful, banal and clearly no knowledge of French provincial life.

Terrible, inaccurate and , to be quite honest, the worst book I have ever
listened to on Audible.

Fun in France

I enjoyed the book overall. I know the main character is American but perhaps a voice actor with a talent for French accents would have been a little more absorbing. It stopped me ever feeling like I was in a French village and left me feeling like it could have been set in America. There wasn’t a lot of variety in the characters voices either.
I have a perchant, currently, for stories set in France and I did enjoy the book. I will try the next one and see how it progresses.

Good

A reasonably entertaining listen. The denouement was a bit of a head scratcher but generally a well written story and an easy listen while doing the housework. Not the best narration maybe but not the worst either. Anyway I’ve bought the second book as I feel sufficiently invested in the characters.
