Book 3: "Death at the Chateau" (Hardback): In this thrilling hardback edition, Monsieur Pamplemousse is invited to a grand chateau owned by a wealthy and eccentric countess.

Coming to the mystery behind the suspicious deaths and Lionel receiving threatening letters - both these mysteries kept me guessing till the end.All members can listen all they want to thousands of included audiobooks, podcasts, originals, and more in the Plus Catalog. A film crew, no less, have taken over the bed and breakfast owned by Richard Ainsworth whilst shooting at the Chateau de Valencay. Both mysteries had an interesting ending, and I cannot choose a favorite - unique and unexpected endings, you see. It's a book in a "Thursday Murder Club" style, but still something totally different, offering both British and French humor. Death at the Chateau" is the third book in the hilarious Follet Valley Mystery series (following "Death and Croissants" and "Death and Fromage"), and this time we join Richard and Valérie as their private investigation agency is taking shape.

I'd recommend Death at the Chateau to any reader who enjoys humorous, action-packed "cosy" mysteries, especially those who enjoy European settings and plenty of cinematic references. This is a man who finds solace spending alone time with his hens who, obviously as he is a doctor of film history, are named after the greats, like Joan Crawford.Supervising the set of a film about Napolean, whilst trying to protect filmstar Lionel from a stalker, Richard and Valerie are now investigating a string of deaths amongst the cast and crew. I loved the plot: a film production company shooting a film based on Napoleon, cranky and egotistical actors, actresses being stalked, romance and two-timings, and of course, deaths under suspicious circumstances. As expected in the third instalment of the Follet Valley Mystery series, this crazy pair find themselves in an impossibley bizarre situation. I loved the plot: a film production company shooting a film based on Napolean, cranky and egotistical actors, actresses being stalked, romance and two-timings, and of course, deaths under suspicious circumstances.

To get to the bottom of things, Valérie d’Orçay and Richard offer catering services to the hastily resumed production. A murder mystery on a film set and Richard been in his element as his worlds collide giving a gripping story. The denouement is quick and feels sudden, in that I feel they get the answers from out of thin air, but the end is suitably interesting.

Death at the Chateau is a rip-roaring read, with a great balance of British-style humour, character hi-jinks and intriguing plot twists. Book 2: "Death and Croissants": The second book finds Monsieur Pamplemousse and Pommes Frites embarking on a journey to the bucolic French countryside. In this third book of the Follet Murder Mystery Series, I’m finding myself more drawn to this pair and the other reoccurring characters in the series. Richard and Valérie’s fledgling Follet Valley-based private investigation company has a new job — security and bodyguard duties for a Hollywood production and one of its stars, filming in the nearby Chateau de Valençay. I didn’t guess who was behind everything which made it all the more exciting and kept me reading to the end without wanting it to or to put it down.

To get to the bottom of things, Valerie d'Orcay and Richard offer catering services to the hastily resumed production.And yes, Richard and Valérie are back working as security agents and diving head first into a hilarious mayhem that kept me in stiches for a few hours. To get to the bottom of things, Valerie d’Orcay and Richard offer catering services to the hastily resumed production. But when a beloved actor suddenly dies, Richard and Valerie go undercover to discover whether his death was really an accident.
