Death and Fromage

A Follet Valley Mystery, Book 2

De: Ian Moore

Narrado por: Ian Moore

Richard is a middle-aged Englishman who runs a B&B in the Vallée de Follet. Nothing ever happens to Richard, and really, that’s the way he likes it.

Until scandal erupts in the nearby town of Saint-Sauver when its famous restaurant is downgraded from three Michelin stars to two. The restaurant is shamed, the town is in shock, and the leading goat cheese supplier drowns himself in one of his own pasteurization tanks. Or does he?

Valérie d’Orçay, who staying at the B&B while house-hunting in the area, isn’t convinced that it’s a suicide. Despite his misgivings, Richard is drawn into Valérie’s investigation, and finds himself becoming a major player.

Such a fun series!

I am really loving this series! It’s clever and fun and just really well done, in my opinion. The author does a wonderful job with the narration too. I hope he keeps writing more books in this series. 🤞🏻

Love this

I’ve listened to the first and now this. Love the characters I feel like I would recognize them if they walked in my door. The mysteries are good and just confusing enough. And I love the author’s reading of his books. He gets (obviously) every joke and there are quite a few laughs. His enthusiasm for the story is contagious. I really have loved listening to these. On to the next!

Cozy and French Mystery like a mug of coffee in a charming cafe.

I enjoyed it vey much. Great narration and a fun story. It’s complicated enough to avoid being predictable. The character development is also believable. I’m usually a bit disappointed by cozy mysteries because they are not believable and are too cliche. This series is very well written and entertaining!

Obsessed with these books!

Absolutely love the murder mystery/comedy genre. This series makes me laugh out loud while also keeping me on my toes wanting to solve the mysteries. Hoping for another in the series!

Laugh out loud funny.

Fun to listen to. Light hearted with endearing characters. Looking forward to the next book.

Funny Fun

There should be a reference library of the protagonists’ metaphors, similes, and self recriminations. They are too much fun.

Delicious!!!

I’ve loved both of these books. Light and fun, you can almost feel the bee.e of the loire valley. I highly recommend this one.

I’m in love with this series.

There is something so charming about Richard I can’t help but smile. His cluelessness combined with the crazy cast of characters. Perfect.

Great mystery

I really enjoy Richard and Valerieamd her dog! Lots of characters in the village which adds to the fun.

Funny and enjoyable

Dry-wit humor abounds in this highly enjoyable read. The often absurd situational comedy is on point. The characters and setting charm. Sometimes trying to follow who did what and why can be a bit confusing and you feel a bit like the befuddled Richard Ainsworth, but all is explained in the end, wrapped up and in fact teed up for the next installment. I will look forward to the continuing adventures of Richard and Valerie!
