But newcomer, Martha Miller doesn't share the excitement. Because

plum gin. But as glasses of the tangy tipple are quaffed, disaster
strikes! Chairwoman of the village show, Alice Warren, slumps to
the ground - poisoned! As fingers of suspicion again point Martha's
way, she's determined to prove her innocence and find the real
culprit. And she's ably helped by the new vicar, Luke Walker. But
who would kill Alice and why? And will Luke and Martha discover who
is behind the poisoning before it's too late? Find out in a brand
new Martha Miller mystery from bestselling author Catherine Coles.

You can run to the sun, but can you ever hide? From the bestselling
author of Villa of Sun and Secrets.Monte Carlo means different
things to different people; for some it's a billionaires
playground, overflowing with glitz and glamour but for others it's
where dangerous secrets lay hidden. For Nanette Weston, and her
then fiance, F1 racing driver Zac Ewart, their dream life came to
an abrupt halt 3 years ago following a car accident which Zac
walked away from, but left Nanette being airlifted back to the UK,
never to return and never to see her fiance again. Monte Carlo was
a place she wanted to forget, not revisit. But when her friend and
employer, Vanessa asks Nanette to look after her children in the
Principality for a few months, Nanette knew she had no choice but
to return. As the F1 circus once again comes to town, with Zac in
pole position, mistakes of the past, leave legacies for the
future... This book was previously published as Follow Your Star by
Jennifer Bohnet. What readers are saying about One Summer in Monte
Carlo: 'As always with Jennifers books I was able to escape into a
completely different world, one we can only dream about.' 'I could
imagine myself as the main female character and could hardly put
down the book.' 'A superb fast-paced read with a real surprise and
absolutely loved the F1 glamour of Monaco - I really felt I was
there!' 'Such a roller coaster ride of people's lives. Tragic, sad,
happy tumultuous feelings of life in the fast lane.'
