French Murder by Colleen Cambridge.
Do you enjoy
cooking? Do you have a favorite chef?
I love cooking, but I
haven’t watched cooking shows that much.
I love reading and learning about Julia Child, but I’ll admit, I’ve never
seen her classic show!
Tabitha Knight has
recently moved to Paris to stay with her French Grandpere. She has become friends with Julia Child who
lives across the street from her. After
a woman is discovered dead in the basement of Child’s building, killed with one
of her knives, Tabitha is using all of her skills to solve the crime before her
friend is put into jail.
I loved the description
of France and the delicious food. I was
ready to fly to Paris when I was reading this.
I loved the 1950’s setting and the characters. Julia Child was larger than life and had a
great repartee with Tabitha. Tabitha was
the narrator of the novel and she was originally from Detroit. I loved the Detroit references that were in
the novel. I also loved Grandpère and
Oncle Rafe. There were hints of a great
backstory for the two of them in World War II and I am hoping we learn more about
it in future novels. Their dog and cat
were cute as well. The mystery was cozy
and kept me guessing. I am ready for
book 2!
