French Fried (2006) - Plot & Excerpts

This was the tenth in the series, I enjoyed it but need to go back and start with book one. Carolyn is a middle aged professor's wife who attracts trouble like no other. She and her husband travel to France for his lecture series, and soon discover a body in their hotel room. The man whose body they discovered has died from eating Pate that was meant for them...Carolyn immediately knows that someone is out to get them. Attempts on their lives are numerous. However, despite the fact that the first murder occurred by pate--Carolyn is content to eat her way through France. The food sounds wonderful and there are some rather adventurous (delectable but time consuming) recipes included. The only unbelievable item is that Carolyn maintains a trim waist--not realistic with the way she eats!

#9 in the Culinary Food Writers series; not #10 as shown. Book listed as #9 on list, Three-Course Murder is actually an omnibus of titles 1-3. This was a tough one for me; from one chapter to the next, I couldn't make up my mind whether or not I liked the characters, the culture, or the plot.Culinary Food Writer series - Dip into the bestselling Culinary mystery series. Carolyn Blue and her husband Jason are in Paris for his lecture tour-and she plans to enjoy the city's culinary delights. But delight turns deadly when a poisonous recipe appears on the local menus.

What do You think about French Fried (2006)?

Carolyn Blue, culinary columnist, goes to Lyon, France with her husband, Jason, when he is invited to speak at an international conference. It's a great opportunity for her column and Jason is thrilled that some of the expenses can be written off due to her job. However, before they even arrive someone dies in their hotel room in what seems to have been poisoned pate that was meant for them. There is an interesting blend of French history and cuisine throughout the book, mixed in with the young grad student making a play for Jason and the multiple attempts on one or both of their lives. Liked it but don't think I'll search out more.
