From USA TODAY Bestselling Author Harper Lin: The first book in the culinary mystery series that takes you on a tour of Paris! Includes 5 Special French Macaron Recipes.

French native Clémence Damour returns to Paris to run the family patisserie, a famous franchise known for their delectable gourmet pastries and sweets in Paris and around the world.

To get off on the right foot with la gardienne, the caretaker of her apartment building, Clémence gives her a box of their luxury macarons. The next morning however, the half-eaten box of macarons is found near la gardienne's dead body. An incompetent inspector accuses Clémence of being the killer, which prompts her to clear her name and solve the case herself.

If you like light-hearted cozy mysteries with recipes by Joanne Fluke or Jessica Beck, you'll enjoy The Patisserie Mysteries.

Join Clémence and her friends as they solve murder cases, bake macarons and other treats, and fall in love in The City of Lights.

Macaron Murder is the first book (25k novella) in this new culinary cozy mystery series set in France, featuring delicious recipes of French pastries and desserts. They don't have to be read in order, but it is recommended since the characters' relationships develop throughout the series.
