When a counterfeit currency racket comes to light on the French Riviera, Detective Inspector Meredith is sent speeding southwards out of the London murk to the warmth and glitter of the Mediterranean. Along with Inspector Blampignon, an amiable policeman from Nice, Meredith must trace the whereabouts of Chalky Cobbett, crook and forger.

Soon their interest centres on the Villa Paloma, the residence of Nesta Hedderwick, an eccentric Englishwoman, and her bohemian house guests, among them her niece, an artist, and a playboy. Before long, it becomes evident that more than one of the occupants of the Villa Paloma has something to hide, and the stage is set for murder.

I just love these Inspector Meredith mysteries. I love the period in which they were written and set, I love the language and simplicity of the life the characters live. The innocence they imbue and page turning thrillers without gore, violence, sex and the nightmares that come with modern thrillers. The performance is superb Mr Griffin portrays 3d characters, like friends with just as much artistry as Bude's penmanship. 10/10

Exciting plot, great narration (Audible). Took me a couple of short chapters to get used to 1950's times/language but worth it. I have enjoyed all John Bude's books (3 read or listened to so far).

This is the third John Bude novel that I have heard, and it is much better than the previous two (Lake District, and Sussex Downs). There is much more human interest in this story and there are interesting sub plots. The narrator, Gordon Griffin, is perfect; he is a talented actor, and has a lovely voice. He performs all the voices perfectly – both male and female – and all the voices are easy on the ear. He pronounces French quite well, and the French characters are just as convincing as the English. Sound quality is also perfect. I enjoyed this holiday in 1952’s France.

Enjoyable
