Anne Penketh – Murder at the Chateau

Reformed banker Pippa is living her best life in the idyllic town of Louennec in Brittany. Business at her new bakery is booming and she even has a new man. But life in France still has its perils . . .

Pippa is catering an event for local ageing British rock star, Alex ‘Rockface’ Johnson. He’s hosting a boar hunt at his tumbledown country château and Pippa is cooking the celebration dinner for when the men return.

She’s just making the final preparations when one of the guests bursts in. There’s been a tragic accident — Alex was shot dead at his own hunt.
