Anty travels to the Riviera to finally have that awkward "did you murder my father" conversation with his mother, but instead finds himself in the ticklish position of defending her and an innocent elephant against charges of a murder that no one could have committed.

Like all Anty Boisjoly mysteries, Reckoning at the Riviera Royale is a stand-alone stumper populated with eccentric characters and composed of impossible murder and improbable intrigues, delivered with signature Boisjoly banter, and it’s best enjoyed by those who like a little humor in their whodunnit.

Anty Boisjoly is a serious experiment in a whimsical line—Christie-esque locked-room mysteries written in the style of PG Wodehouse. The reviews are in and the experiment is a success. Listeners emphasize in particular the witty and whimsical first-person voice of Anty Boisjoly narrating the nevertheless twisty mysteries.

What do you get if you cross the wit of PD Wodehouse, the ingenuity of Agatha Christie & the characterisation of Dorothy L Sayers? The magnificent mysteries* of Anty Boisjoly that’s what.

Another cracking case solved with the dulcet tones of the talented Tim Bruce. There are very few characters who I wish were real and who I wish I could meet: Hercule Poirot & Lord Peter Wimsey have always been up there… But now, how I’d love to spend an afternoon at The Juniper Club with Mr Boisjoly! Well done PJ Fitzsimmons!

*My only issue in earlier books is the use of Americanisms that just don’t sit right (sidewalk is a frequent one,) unless they’re being used in an ironic way & I’m missing the joke? Hasn’t stopped my enjoyment of the series though.

Boisjoly Brilliance at its Best!

I’m quite addicted to this series, I like listening to the books when on long drives as they are easy and fun.
This book did not disappoint me, the setting on the French Riviera was lovely, but compared to the previous ones it was a bit confusing and the story too far fetched.

Oh Mr Fitzsimmons you’ve done it again. Absolutely fabulous twist and turns with some gorgeous characters. So hope there are lots more of Anty and his antics.

Loved this book as I have the others. Anty uses the most laughable language but his thought processes are very astute. Until the suspects are killed off one by one I am convinced they are all guilty so am left guessing to the very end. Thumpy is the star of this book.
Loved the final extra chapter as well - very clever.

Ridiculous characters with ridiculous names!
