A very good start for a new cozy series.
The book is fun to read, well written, and with a cast of lovely characters.
I loved the humour and descriptions of Paris.
The plot was sound and kept me guessing till the end.
I look forward to reading further instalments in this series.
Recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC

I just finished this book last night. This is a very good book. I love the different characters, settings in Paris, and I learned some new words.

Thank you Net Gallery and Thistle Publishing for this great read.

I found myself trying to figure out if this was a murder or simple case of a heart attack. As Magda and Rachel dive into this mystery to find the truth, they interview everyone who knew the victim Edgar. Just when I think it's one person who may have killed him then it leads me to believe it is someone else. Then I think oh no it was a heart attack and then he drowned in his soup. This book certainly kept me guessing.

♥I got an ARC from the publisher through NetGalley and this is my honest uninfluenced review♥

Rating: 4 of 7; 4 of 5; 9 of 10

General view: It took me a while to get hooked up, but I must be honest and admit that it was my fault, not the book. I was in a kind of bad place when I started reading, and I know I would have been way more interested if I was in my normal self. Also, there are so many plot twists! Fucking loved it!

Ending: can't fucking believe it. Of all the suspects I just never thought it would have happened like that. I mean yes I disagree with Rachel like half of the time, but this? Never saw it coming.

Positives: i LOVED Rachel and Magda. Honestly! They're amazing and so realistic. Who doesn't wanna to be a detective?

Downsides: I have a language problem. Something I didn't understand, it looked like people always spoke English with the Rachel. I mean, ok, she's American, but she lived in Paris for decades so why do people speak English?

Side note: just realised one of my updates vanished and now I'm upset. On a more important side note, I finished the book ages ago, but husband was home these days and also, c'mom, World Cup dude
