This one was OK. It turned out to be a cozy mystery with romance. Very slow start. Some elements were not too credible. However, the ending was unexpected because of a late discovery. Not sure whether the discovery was real or fictional but it was a surprise. I'm not familiar with French history during the Vichy Regime which made it all the more shocking to me, if true. Gave it a C- [3 stars] for the ending and novel length.

Spoiler:
Did the Vichy govt really murder, rape and pillage Resistance villages?


Continuing on the French theme (sort of), I'll start His Majesty's Dragon by Naomi Novik next.
