In need of a break, DI Archie Darling and his trusty Dalmatian companion Juno set off in their camper van to explore the quiet beauty of rural France.
Their journey begins in the Dordogne, to attend the wedding of an old friend Craig. Archie is instantly charmed by the incomparable soothing rhythms of French village life and the picturesque wedding venue, the Manoir la Poisse. So, when one guest is found dead and then another, Archie is reluctant to get involved.
When it becomes clear however that the French police are keen to brush the truth of the deaths under the carpet, Archie's professional sleuthing instinct proves impossible to resist. Before he knows it, Archie is creating his own list of suspects from the many wedding guests, an alarming number of whom have dubious alibis, and ticking off clues.
And as he gets closer to unmasking the killer, Archie and Juno are faced with a dilemma - risk the consequences of meddling or leave town before they're in the crosshairs of a killer...
With the perfect blend of sunshine and sleuthing, Death in the Dordogne is a page-turning treat for all fans of French holidays and cosy mysteries.
Readers adore J.R. Leigh:

'I would highly recommend reading this book if you love a cosy mystery that keeps you guessing until the end and has great characters in it as well.'
