National best-selling author
Daryl Wood Gerber delivers an irresistible tale in A Deadly Éclair. Brimming with the ingredients of a winning
recipe—a to-die-for setting, a captivating cast of characters, fabulous French
bistro fare, and sumptuous suspense—A
Deadly Éclair marks the advent of a mouthwatering new mystery series.
About A Deadly Éclair: It’s always
been Mimi Rousseau’s dream to open her own bistro, but it seems beyond her
grasp since she’s been chased back home to Nouvelle Vie in Napa Valley by her
late husband’s tremendous debt. But when Mimi’s best friend Jorianne James
introduces her to Bryan Baker, an entrepreneur who invests in promising
prospects, Mimi’s dream becomes a reality and Bistro Rousseau is born. Now,
working the bistro and inn until she’s able to pay it off and call it her own,
Mimi is throwing the inn’s first wedding ever.
This wedding will be the talk of the town, as celebrity talk show host Angelica Edmonton, daughter of Bryan’s half-brother, Edison, has chosen the inn as the perfect venue for her extravagant nuptials. Anxious, Mimi is sure things are going to turn south—especially when Edison gets drunk and rowdy at the out-of-towners’ dinner—but by the evening, things begin to look up again. That is until morning rolls around, and Bryan is found dead at the bistro with an éclair stuffed in his mouth. And the fingers point at Mimi, whose entire loan is forgiven if Bryan dies.
Now it’s up to Mimi to clear her name and get to the bottom of things before the killer turns up the heat again. Murder, after all, is not a good addition to any menu….
