Susan C. Shea's novel set in the French countryside offers a pleasant getaway from hard-core killers * New York Times on Love and Death in Burgundy *
The outlandish antics of the eccentric locals add to the humor. Suggest to fans of Rhys Bowen's early "Evan Evans" series for the humor, the characters, and the charming setting * Library Journal on Love and Death in Burgundy *

Not since my first visit to Louise Penny's Three Pines, have I encountered a more beguiling fictional world than Susan C. Shea's Reigny-Sur-Cannes. Dressed for Death in Burgundy is a box of delights!
