- fullDescription
- When Lucy Stone arrives at a sprawling French chateau with the whole family, it should be the trip of a lifetime—especially because she's about to watch her oldest daughter, Elizabeth, marry the handsome, successful man of her dreams. But while navigating the vast countryside estate owned by her daughter's impenetrably wealthy in-laws-to-be, the jet-lagged mother of the bride has a creeping feeling that Elizabeth's fairytale nuptials to Jean-Luc Schoen-Rene are destined to become a nightmare. Maternal instincts are validated the moment a body is pulled from a centuries-old moat on the property. A young woman has dropped dead under mysterious circumstances—possibly at the hands of someone at the chateau—and unflattering rumors about the Schoen-Rene line and their inner circle flow like champagne. Then there's the matter of Elizabeth's hunky ex beau showing up on the scene as she prepares to walk down the aisle... With tensions building, personalities clashing, and real dangers emerging at the chateau, Lucy is determined to protect her family, together for the first time in years, and expose the one responsible. She'll have to locate the culprit among a list of worldly jilted lovers and potential criminal masterminds or Elizabeth's trip down the aisle could end in tragedy...

Meier’s ho-hum latest dip (after 2022’s Easter Bonnet Murder) into the life of Lucy Stone, an intrepid reporter in Tinker’s Cove, Maine, focuses on her oldest daughter, Elizabeth, who has been working as a concierge at a swanky hotel in Paris. The action begins when Elizabeth informs her mother of her upcoming marriage to Frenchman Jean-Luc Schoen-Rene. The ceremony is to be held at his family’s château, and the Schoen-Renes have offered to put Elizabeth’s family up during their stay. Amid the festivities, a woman’s body is found in the château’s moat, but the gendarmes treat her death with a shrug. This doesn’t satisfy Lucy, who can’t help investigating while maneuvering around family squabbles and culture clashes. Fans who started with Meier’s first Lucy Stone novel in 1991 may be interested to see how the gumshoe’s children and grandchildren are turning out, but the plotting in this outing is exceedingly limp. Readers looking for a worthy mystery to solve—or even a cozy one—would be better served elsewhere. Agent: Meg Ruley, Jane Rotrosen Agency.
