Reviews
"A thoroughly engaging romp set in the olive groves above the French Riviera. Draine and Hinden's eccentric and amiable characters (one of whom happens to be a murderer) gather together to share delicious meals, amble through medieval villages, and argue about van Gogh's art, life, and mysterious death in this charming whodunit."--M. L. Longworth, author of The Mystery of the Lost Cézanne, "Making their third sleuthing appearance (after The Body in Bodega Bay ), Nora and Toby are utterly delightful. . . . Mystery devotees who want an atmospheric crime novel with an art history slant such as Iain Pears's 'Jonathan Argyll' books will enjoy this series."-- Library Journal, "A clever mystery that weaves art and murder into a rich, colorful tapestry set against the backdrop of the real-life controversy surrounding the death of Vincent van Gogh. A sure thing for art lovers, Francophiles, and readers who enjoy their mysteries with a glass of fine wine."--Patricia Skalka, author of Death Stalks Door County, "Highly recommended and certain to be an enduringly popular addition to the personal reading lists of mystery buffs, and a sought after addition to community library Mystery/Suspense collections."-- Bookwatch, "The best novel yet in an already strong series. The plot is tight, the subject engaging, and the characters suitably attractive, villainous, and occasionally sexy. Expertly exploring the mystery of Van Gogh's death, the authors serve us French food and wine along the very enjoyable way."--Richard B. Schwartz, author of The Last Voice You Hear, "The real heart and soul of the story . . . is southern France and the life of Van Gogh, both of which figure prominently into the plot. There are lots of tidbits of art history, plenty of French food and wine, and a generous helping of armchair travel highlights included here."-- ReviewingtheEvidence.Com, "Into the mix of personalities, the authors weave in tantalizing snippets of letters written by Isabelle's grandfather about his acquaintance with the extremely moody and vulnerable Van Gogh in 1890. The result is an entertaining whodunit."-- Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine

Synopsis
When art historian Nora Barnes returns to France for a Van Gogh conference in the charming medieval village of Saint-Paul-de-Vence, she's expecting a vigorous debate about whether the famed artist's suicide was actually a homicide. But on the night before the conference, an elderly French woman who'd promised to reveal important evidence is found face down in the village fountain, and her Chanel briefcase is nowhere to be seen. During a week of academic squabbling, dining, romance, and suspense, the quirky conference members, one by one, fall under police suspicion and the amused gaze of Nora's husband, Toby Sandler. But someone wants to stop Nora and Toby's amateur sleuthing, and what happens next is no joke., This romp through French art, fine wine, romance, and murder is the third novel in the Nora Barnes and Toby Sandler mystery series, as these artful sleuths investigate the mysterious death of Vincent van Gogh.
