For years, Penelope Kite put her unfaithful ex-husband and her ungrateful stepchildren first. Now she's going to start living for herself. Though her dream house in the Luberon valley needs major renovations, Penelope impulsively buys the property and moves to St. Merlot. But the discovery of a body in her swimming pool exposes intrigues and lingering resentments in the deceptively sunny village. Thank heavens Penelope, having worked in a forensics office, knows a thing or two about investigations. -- Adapted from publisher info.
