About this listen

The first novel in the enthralling Follet Valley Series, by TV/radio regular Ian Moore.

Richard is a middle-aged Englishman who runs a B&B in the fictional Val de Follet in the Loire Valley. Nothing ever happens to Richard, and really that’s the way he likes it. One day, however, one of his older guests disappears, leaving behind a bloody handprint on the wallpaper. Another guest, the exotic Valérie, persuades a reluctant Richard to join her in investigating the disappearance. Richard remains a dazed passenger in the case until things become really serious and someone murders Ava Gardner, one of his beloved hen...and you don’t mess with a fellow’s hens!

Unpausable mystery set in rural France, by TV/radio regular and best-selling author Ian Moore - perfect for fans of Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club, Julia Chapman, or M.C. Beaton. Everyone is wanting mort!

Such a fun, quick mystery with a charming cast of characters read brilliantly by the author.

Fun, clever mystery

Fun and light cozy mystery of a British expat in France. Draws humor from pairing a straight-laced, somewhat befuddled, middle-aged English man with a smart, capable, and charismatic French woman. Charming story and narration.

Funny cozy mystery

Too convoluted, far fetched and silly. Not worth listening to the rest of the books in the series.

Silly

Well read, nothing deep but not trite. Enjoyed my drive while listening. Will listen to some more of the series.

Easy listening and well read

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Wild, convoluted and imaginative twist on a cozy mystery. Ian Moore was an excellent narrator for his book - the right tone, dry humor and male confusion.

Very very entertaining.

I am hoping for more from Ian in future.

Ridiculous and enormously fun

I liked the characters. The story was slightly confusing but entertaining. The performance by the author was outstanding. I enjoyed it.

I am surprised that I enjoyed this book so much.

The narrator’s reading are so funny and the characters are well-conceived, warm and sympathetic. Like taking a vacay in the Loire Valley.

Laugh out loud funny
