About this listen

Boston girl Molly Sutton moves to a small village in France to lick her wounds after a divorce. Castillac is charming, the croissants amazing, the wine delectable. Molly's new life is full of contentment, if a bit short on excitement.

But then a girl goes missing...and Molly's world gets turned upside down.

Truth be told, no one in the village feels safe. They struggle to believe such darkness could exist in a friendly village, where people spend most of their time thinking about nothing more frightening than what to have for lunch.

And when the missing girl's distraught parents come to stay at Molly's bed and breakfast, she is drawn into the case, like it or not.

Will Molly and the French detective figure out what happened to Amy Bennett before someone else disappears?

Terrible narration. Strong American accent didn’t suit the story. The whole story seemed unlikely and there was no sense of rural France.

Disappointed

The author does a nice job of pulling you in to the romanticism of French village life but seems strangely unaware of default American cultural references that make no sense when attached to French villagers.
Eg having a character refer to “Mr Rogers”.

PS Very strange and abrupt ending also

Americanisms
