Description

Death at the Chateau Bremont by M. L. Longworth A murder sets the historic town of Aix-en-Provence abuzz with rumors, and Antoine Verlaque, the charming chief magistrate, suspects foul play. When he discovers that the victim, Étienne de Bremont, was a close friend of Marine Bonnet, his on-again off-again girlfriend, Verlaque must turn to her for help. As they investigate, they uncover a web of secrets and motives that lead them to question everyone in the town, including the victim's playboy brother François, who's heavily in debt and mixed up with some unsavory characters. As the investigation unfolds, another death occurs, and this time, there can be no doubt - it's murder. The once idyllic town is filled with people who could have benefited from the victim's death, and Verlaque and Bonnet must navigate a complex landscape of relationships and alliances to uncover the truth. A lively mystery steeped in the enticing atmosphere of the south of France, Death at the Chateau Bremont is a captivating tale of romance, intrigue, and murder, set against the stunning backdrop of Provence.
