A new book in The Times bestselling Follet Valley mystery series, by leading TV/radio comedian Ian Moore perfect for fans of Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club. Richard Ainsworth's French B&B has been taken over by a production company shooting a historical film at the nearby Château de Valençay. But everything grinds to a halt with the sudden passing of a veteran extra under suspicious circumstances. To get to the bottom of things, repeat guest - the resourceful Valérie Dorçay - and Richard take jobs in the crew of the hastily resumed production. There they discover that the vanity, duplicity and murder of an 18th century French court is nothing compared to that of a 21st century film set, with more heads yet to roll. AUTHOR: Ian Moore is a leading stand-up comedian, known for his sharp, entertaining punditry. A TV/radio regular, he stars in Dave's satirical TV show Unspun and Channel 5's topical comedy Big Mouths. He lives in rural France and commutes back to the UK every week. In his spare time, he makes mean chutneys and jams.
