Product Description
Monsieur Pamplemousse, formerly of the Surete, now works for Le Guide, France's most pretigious culinary review. Currently investigating the Hotel-Restaurant La Langoustine, Pamplemousse is considering giving i the supreme accolade, the coveted three Stock Pots. Standing by (or, rather sitting under the table) to help him judge is Pommes Frites, the restaurant reviewer's traveling companion, a canine with the tastes of a conooisseur.
But when the chef's chef d'oeuve arrives at Pamplemousse's table, the platter, when uncovered reveals not the expected, delicious Poularede de Bresse en Vessie Royal but an appalling good likeness of a man's head.
And suddenly Pamplemousse finds his own head on the line and his ownlife very much at stake, in a wonderfully suspense mystery whose ingredients include a inflatable dog house, an overly amorous proprietress, a man without hands, a nun with a gun, and some excellent eating indeed.
