By: Colleen Cambridge   | Series: An American In Paris Mystery 
Set in midcentury Paris and starring Julia Child’s fictional best friend, this magnifique reimagining of the iconic chef’s years at Le Cordon Bleu blends a delicious murder mystery with a unique culinary twist.

“It’s Child’s ebullient personality that is the heart of the book. Part historical fiction, part mystery, Mastering the Art of French Murder is totally delectable entertainment for fans of lighthearted detective fiction.” – The Washington Post


From fine Bordeaux and freshly baked baguettes to the friendly chatter of the green market, postwar Paris is indulging its appetite for food, and life, once more, as Tabitha Knight, a young American woman, makes friends with chef-in-training Julia Child—and finds herself immersed in a murder most unsavory . . .

As Paris rediscovers its joie de vivre, Tabitha Knight, recently arrived from Detroit for an extended stay with her French grandfather, is on her own journey of discovery. Paris isn't just the City of Light; it's the city of history, romance, stunning architecture . . . and food. Thanks to her neighbor and friend Julia Child, another expat who's fallen head over heels for Paris, Tabitha is learning how to cook for her Grandpère and her Oncle Rafe.

Between tutoring Americans in French, and sampling the results of Julia's studies at Le Cordon Bleu cooking school, Tabitha's sojourn is thoroughly delightful. That is, until the cold December day they return to Julia's building and learn that a body has been found in the cellar. Tabitha recognizes the victim from a party given by Julia's sister, Dort, the night before. The murder weapon is recognizable too—a knife from Julia's kitchen.

Tabitha is eager to help the investigation, but is shocked when Inspector Merveille reveals that a note, in Tabitha's handwriting, was found in the dead woman's pocket. Now, from the shadows of the Tour Eiffel, to the Childs' tiny kitchen, to the grungy streets of Montmartre, Tabitha navigates the city, hoping to find the real killer before she or one of her friends ends up in prison . . . or worse.

Perfect Small-ish Business Bag
Color: Apricot, Size: 14-Inch
I have been on the search for a small business bag, that can go on. top of my luggage as well as look nice in the office and at meetings. That will still hold all of my things while keeping me organized. So what fits, I can put my 12.9" iPad, with case and Magic Keyboard in the spot for a laptop. I can also put my 8x10 spiral bound planner, a notebook, mouse, small cable case, pencil case, water bottle and purse pouch with all my essentials. So my water bottle does not fit inside the side bottle pockets, so I do have to put it inside the bag it's self, but that's a no issue. The shoulder straps seem sturdy enough and the color beige/cream looks nice with my neutral wardrobe. Overall I'm happy with the purchase. We'll see how it travels over the next year as I have quite a bit of traveling and work do to offsite this year. j

Stylish, High-Quality Backpack. A Great Upgrade from My Usual Black Bags!
Color: Pinkish Grey, Size: 14-Inch
I’m really impressed with this backpack. I usually stick to black bags, but I decided to try something different, and I’m so glad I did. The color is beautiful—unique without being too loud—and adds a nice pop. The quality of the material feels top-notch. It’s sturdy yet lightweight, and the stitching and zippers seem very durable. Overall, this backpack feels well thought out in both design and function. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something professional, stylish, and practical.

Gorgeous, but some big downsides
Color: Pink-upgrade, Size: 14 Inch
I wanted to like this bag SO BADLY. I’ve owned other backpacks by this brand and they have never disappointed. This one though, was a close miss. The color is absolutely GORGEOUS and I almost kept it for that reason alone. However, two big things made me return it: 1) The inside is no longer padded. If you had purchased older Golf Supags backpacks, the interior had padding to help the backpack keep its shape and not slouch over on the floor. That’s gone, so this one does flop over a little. But the big deal breaker: 2) holy cannoli, these straps are WAY too long! On the shortest length, the backpack is still hanging almost halfway down my back. It looks weird, but it’s also not ergonomically good for your back. The actual strap part (with padding) is so far back that the thin seatbelt adjustable material is the only thing on my shoulders. Super awkward. I’m not necessarily a small person either, so I shudder to think what this would look like on someone more petite than me.

Flimsy and cheap
Color: Apricot, Size: 14-Inch
This is the second time I bought a purse online... First was on temu ... Expected to be trash and it was... So I bought this one... And idk what's worse, the temu purse or this one.. only buying them in person from now on unless Its 100% obviously sturdy and of good quality. The fabric and entire purse itself is cheap thin fabric .. not only does it feel cheap it looks cheap. I'm not one to write comments but I'd return it if I wasn't so damn lazy... It feels like the play purses your parents would give you as a kid. Not worth the money. I guess it has pockets, but I feel like my things would be sitting on the floor even though my purse is a barrier and feels like my belongings are not protected in the slightest... Especially not a laptop as advertised.
