In The French Market Murder we’re back in Sainte-Catherine where Zoe discovers a body in an abandoned house during a bank holiday weekend. And finally we have the new book The Vineyard Murder, where Zoe is helping her friend Marcel with his grape harvest when she discovers a body in among the vines when she is arriving in the early morning. But when she returns with the local police office...
