About this title

Synopsis:

The witty and enchanting third novel from the well-loved actress and Sunday Times�-bestselling author of Not Quite Nice and Nice Work (If You Can Get It) follows the hilarious antics of a group of retired expats in the South of France

The beautiful town of Bellevue-sur-Mer, tucked between glitzy Monte Carlo and the plush red carpets of Cannes, is home to Theresa, Carol, William, Benjamin and Sally: five retired expats who have pooled their resources to set up La Mosa�que, a divine little restaurant.

But there is trouble in paradise: the friends are desperately struggling to make ends meet, and when the much hoped for sale of their Picasso mosaic falls through they realise it will take every bit of their talent and gumption to save La Mosa�que. But with fussy customers, obnoxious cruise parties and a failing delivery van, it's certainly not going to be easy.

On top of this, Theresa and Sally have their own distractions. Theresa's teenage granddaughter has gone missing, and the chap she's run off with sounds distinctly unsavoury; plus she's getting mysterious phone calls, and the strong sense that someone's watching her. Meanwhile, Sally's run into the Markhams: a grisly husband and wife pair of luvvies from her acting days, whose jibes are enough to send her on an ill-advised search for the limelight.

Store Description

About Prelovedbooks - I am a small amateur collector selling a small number of books. I specialize in modern first editions (first printing in most cases), especially signed by the author and mainly UK editions which make ideal imaginative birthday and Christmas presents - such as Michael Morpurgo's War Horse signed directly to the book, not a bookplate. To me, a signed copy means the author has handled and added a little more of themself to that particular book when they would never generally see the vast majority that go on sale. I personally like signed UK crime and thrillers from older authors such as Frederick Forsyth, Jack Higgins, from current authors Lee Child and Robert Harris which also make great Xmas presents for Dads and Grandads! I am buying some new books for resale from authors I consider collectable, and books that hopefully will only increase in value. I also buy at auction houses, book fairs, or occasionally over the internet, so these books are almost never new, but I try and sell only books in very good or fine condition. I also have a few signed autobiographies and some odd items such as signed cinema posters. I have a number of signed books for sale by authors such as Billy Connolly, David Attenborough, Philip Pullman, Bill Bryson, Julia Donaldson and Gerald Durrell amongst many others. I strive to be honest with a book's description as I would expect to be in return and I will pack and send securely. As a book lover I understand the joy of safely receiving a much wanted book in good condition. As a buyer my real pet hate is signed books offered for sale with a stock photo of the cover only - so essentially I'm buying something blind? Is it really that much effort to add a photo of the signature? That's why I'll always have photos of the actual signed books I have to offer on AbeBooks. Thank you for reading and please check out all my signed books. You never know!
