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!
