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:
