Monsieur Pamplemousse Synopsis
The Monsieur Pamplemousse book series is a popular series of culinary mystery, crime fiction, contemporary, humor, detective fiction, and cosy mystery stories. The series revolves around the life of a charming French food inspector and a part-time detective named Monsieur Pamplemousse. He is seen chasing criminals and trying to solve mysteries with the assistance of his crime-stopping and faithful partner, a bloodhound named Pomme Frites.
Will La Langoustine win the longed-for jewel in the chef’s crown, a third Red Stockpot? The signs are promising as Monsieur Pamplemousse and Pommes Frites await the delicacy of the house, chicken wrapped in a pig’s bladder and stuffed with truffles and foie gras, and the room is filled with a mouth-watering aroma of herbs, wine and spices. As Monsieur Pamplemousse stands to make his first cut with a characteristically deft movement, the outer casing collapses to reveal not the expected treat but a dish of far more grisly proportions. Clearly someone wants Monsieur Pamplemousse out of the way, but nothing delights the detective more than the chance to practise the skills he learnt in his sleuthing days at the Sûreté…
