Tabitha Knight has firmly entrenched herself in her grandfathers and uncles house. She loves her work, her life and has no intention of returning to America. Becoming friends with Julia Child, introduces fabulous cuisine into the story, along with haute couture. What Tabitha did not think was that she will stumble over corpses and be the first person to encounter them. Her sort of on off attraction to n dashing Inspector helps.
In this story Tabitha establishes herself as a promising sleuth. There is a lot of history during this era in Paris, including the brutal treatment of women collaborators some of whom just got into it to survive. It didn’t turn out well for them. Julia Child was just coming into her own and the food descriptions are exquisite.

I love that this one is set in Paris. It's one of my favorite settings. :D
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for reviewing this one. I've been very curious about it.
ReplyDeleteSounds really good. You had me at Paris, and Julia Child in France is a long-time interest. The history aspect also appeals to me. I recently watched The New Look, about Dior and Coco Chanel, and the topic of female collaborators during WWII was definitely a topic.
ReplyDeleteI really want to start this series. It looks so good!
