Review: If you enjoyed the adventures of Hamish Macbeth and Agatha Raisin then this book will be a real treat. It is a definite must for your library. M. Pamplemousse is a french food critic and detective 'extraordinaire'. Pommes Frites, his dog/companion/taste tester, is always by his side keeping him out of trouble. One or the other is always into something. A prime example is M. Pamplemousse's involvement with a blow-up human doll. Can't say more, you'll just have to read the story! Michael Bond certainly knows the subtley of french cuisine and is able to describe the various dishes without difficulty. My only complaint is when I finished the book I was left wanting to read more. One should be warned that this book will make you laugh out loud, be prepared to receive some looks if read in public!

Review: Monsieur Pamplemousse (created by the same wit who invented Paddington Bear) is the dour food critic for a thinly disguised Michelin ratings book of european restaurants. He travels around europe, uncovering murders and trying to remain incognito, all the while accompanied by his loveable bloodhound, Pommes Frites (french fries). These rollicking adventures had me howling out loud (a rarity) and begging for more - don't miss them!
