    Description

    The first novel in the enthralling Follet Valley Series, by TV/radio regular Ian Moore.

    Richard is a middle-aged Englishman who runs a B&B in the fictional Val de Follet in the Loire Valley. Nothing ever happens to Richard, and really that’s the way he likes it. One day, however, one of his older guests disappears, leaving behind a bloody handprint on the wallpaper. Another guest, the exotic Valérie, persuades a reluctant Richard to join her in investigating the disappearance. Richard remains a dazed passenger in the case until things become really serious and someone murders Ava Gardner, one of his beloved hen...and you don’t mess with a fellow’s hens!

    Unpausable mystery set in rural France, by TV/radio regular and best-selling author Ian Moore - perfect for fans of Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club, Julia Chapman, or M.C. Beaton. Everyone is wanting mort!

    Ridiculous and enormously fun

    Wild, convoluted and imaginative twist on a cozy mystery. Ian Moore was an excellent narrator for his book - the right tone, dry humor and male confusion.

    Very very entertaining.

    I am hoping for more from Ian in future.

    Laborious humor

    Juts OK. I liked the Thursday murder club much more. This is not as tightly written and I grew bored of the tedious nature abs the reluctant sort of self-pity of the main character.

    Hilarious

    Loved this book. Laughed out loud several times. The author reads it, he's a radio comic. English humor at its best

    I am surprised that I enjoyed this book so much.

    I liked the characters. The story was slightly confusing but entertaining. The performance by the author was outstanding. I enjoyed it.

    Definitely not a substitute for Thursday Murder

    This book was listed as a great read if you liked the Thursday Murder Club books. Meh. This book was ok but nothing close. I feel like this book would have been better with a different narrator. I feel like the author was too droll and missed a lot of the sarcasm in his lead characters voice. Overall, it was fine but I found myself drifting instead of really being concerned over what was happening.

    narrator

    Hire a pro. I'm sure if I wrote a book I would feel only I could get the voices right. I get why authors would want to narrate, but its a mistake. Some get it right, Neil Gaiman comes to mind, but most don't.
    Moore did ok, but I could hear the sound of "I've read this 1000 times" in the delivery. The engineering could use some work too. So, the story, I may have been able to get into but the narration kept from going past chapter 7 or 8. Pay the pros, they can make a bad book okay and a good one great!

    Very funny

    Very funny—every bit as crazy as Fawlty Towers. Twists, twists, and more twists. Fun to listen to.

    Good characters, slow and disjointed

    Liked the main characters and wanted to know more about them. The story was so slow and the end didn’t make any sense. Close but not quite.

    sehr sympatisch

    Der Hauptcharakter Richard ist lustig und liebenswert. Insgesamt hat mir die Geschichte sehr gut gefallen. Der Schreibstil ist wundervoll und traf genau meinen Humor. Dass der Autor zeitgleich auch die Geschichte liest ist perfekt!
