About this listen

A thrilling new crime series by the best-selling author of Death and Croissants

A Killer. A Saint. A Town Full of Whispers

When an English expat is brutally murdered, his charred corpse left on a Loire Valley hillside, the police turn to juge d’instruction Matthieu Lombard to find the perpetrator.

Instead, Lombard discovers a wealth of secrets, grudges, and feuds in the idyllic town of Saint-Genèse-sur-Loire. He begins to suspect that the remaining members of the Comité des Fêtes know more about the death than they are letting on.

But rather than leading to an arrest, each clue he uncovers seems to point in one, unexpected direction: Joan of Arc. Is the answer to the murder hiding in the barroom gossip of the Lion d’Or? Or in another century altogether?

The thrilling new crime series from The Times-bestselling author of Death and Croissants.

Liked the château series the author Ted much better than this book. I did like the intrigue developed.

Okay but liked previous books

Reading you are immersed in the mysteries, but at the same time enjoying knowing and experiencing all the various characters. The author is an artist with words.

Characters, locations and a mystery

What starts out with a compelling incident never materializes into anything more. If you enjoy body shaming, casual misogyny and whiny middle-aged men, this is the book for you.
Disappointing. I’ve read all of Ian Moore’s previous books set at the chambre d’hôte in the French countryside and enjoyed them. This is not in the same league.

Oof no thanks
