The French for Murder (A Lady Eleanor Swift Mystery Book 10) by Verity Bright

 

This is a delightful romp on the Riviera written in a rather tongue-in-cheek and amusing manner, but with an interesting murder case and a charming and likeable heroine. It is sure to keep you reading late into the night to discover who the murderer is!

Lady Eleanor Swift (who bears a remarkable resemblance to Gloria Swanson) is looking forward to a relaxing holiday in a luxurious Riviera villa when her Carlton-esque butler informs her that there is a body in the cellar! Eleanor sets out to discover who the killer is, while having a wonderful time dressed to the nines attending parties and travelling along the scenic coastline. The victim was an actor in a Hollywood movie being made nearby, and Eleanor's investigations involve quite a few interesting characters, including a Fitzgerald-like golden couple, a snarky diva, and a charming, but annoying French detective. 

I haven't read the previous novels by Verity Bright, but I hope that they are as enjoyable as this one.

I received this free ebook from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
