A Market Tale

Author: 

Martin Walker

This charming story is written in the world of a larger mystery series, but is not itself a mystery. There is a love interest, but it isn't really a love story, either. It is a character-driven peak into life in the French countryside, and it is a delight to read.

Favorite Thing: 
The way the setting and the food seemed like characters in the story.
