Another good book in this series. It's not for you if you enjoy the darker gruesome crime thrillers but it's a wonderful cosy mystery series.

I really enjoy these for a lighter read and I love the France setting.

Review in progress and to come.

I received a free copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review

If you’re looking for a proper cozy mystery, then this is the book for you. It has everything you’d want: suspected murders, a film crew getting in the way, and of course Valerie & Richard.

Valerie and Richard are back after forming a security business together. 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.

In starting this book, I did have some trouble getting initially invested in the plot, but once the plot was established, it was smooth sailing from there. In the end, I found this book quite entertaining and sweet at times.

A very entertaining romp in the French countryside with distinctive characters and a rollicking sense of humor. The solution to the mystery is far-fetched and disappointing, but the journey to get to it is delightful.

Riotously Good..
More mayhem and madness in the third of the Follet Valley Mystery series. A film crew, no less, have taken over the bed and breakfast owned by Richard Ainsworth whilst shooting at the Chateau de Valencay. When a sudden and suspicious death occurs, both Richard and Valerie are keen to get involved. Of course they are - and this can only mean one thing. Chaos. Wholly engaging and wildly entertaining, once again, as humour dances off every page. Riotously good.

Death at the Chateau is the latest of the Follet Valley Mysteries following Richard Ainsworth, a middle-aged Englishman who has moved to the bucolic Loire Valley where he runs a Bed and Breakfast.

Richard’s B&B has been taken over by a production company shooting an historical film, when everything is stopped due to the sudden passing of an actor under suspicious circumstances, poisoning by Viagra.

Richard and Valerie offer their services and are back sleuthing again.

Another funny and laugh out loud joyous book to join the series. Here’s to plenty more.

Murderous shenanigans and suspicious poisoning by Viagra are some of the unpleasant woes plaguing the crew of a dysfunctional movie production gathered at the Château de Valençay in order to finish filming à wonky historical piece centered around Napoleon and Talleyrand at the tail-end of the First Empire....

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. I love this wonderful series and its laughing out loud wacky situations, its delightful quirkiness full of goofy slapstick and delicious verbal pyrotechnics, and last but not least its screwy cast of characters, peacocks and hens included...

This terrific novel is the perfect antidote to forget for a few joyful hours the depressing world we live in!

Highly recommended and to be enjoyed without any moderation whatsoever!

Many thanks to Farrago and Netgalley for this very entertaining ARC!
