Publisher's summary

Calamity befalls the little Vendome Theater in the tenth installment of the sun- and wine-soaked Provençal Mystery Series.

When Jean-Marc Sauvet, successful lawyer and the best friend of Aix-en-Provence's examining magistrate Antoine Verlaque, accepted a small role in a local theater's summer production of Marcel Pagnol's Cigalon, he had no idea that the lead actress would be played by the great Liliane Poncet. But Jean-Marc's excitement about rubbing elbows with one of France's legendary film stars is quickly extinguished. The lead actor, Gauthier Lesage, is rude and unenthusiastic, and nobody understands how he got the part. Chaos reigns backstage thanks to the absentminded theater director. And everyone seems to be harboring a secret. When one of the actors goes missing for good, it's up to the soon-to-be-a-father Verlaque and his police commissioner, Bruno Paulik, to untangle the threads of a mystery that seems to get more complicated every day . . .

Subterfuge at the Vendome

Deception among the stage actors underlie this confusing story; however, our main characters are sublime—beloved Verlaque, Marine, and Paulik.

Add to the story Marine’s upcoming birth. It is so delightful to listen to
Christa Lewis. I just love listening to M.L. Longworth’s stories.

An Outstanding Series!

I love this book and each of the others in the collection. The character development and interrelationships bring out warmth, humor, intrigue, cultural experiences, humanity, and intricately interwoven plots.
I want to reread this and all the others too.

If you know Aix

It’s always a pleasure that these rather gentle policiers take place with precise reference to real streets and neighborhoods in Aix.
