Amelia can’t wait to get away from her nasty boss in Seattle and start a new life in France. When she arrives on remote Findlater Island for his wedding, a dead body kicks off a string of complications. Can she solve the murder before the police decide she’s the one with the strongest motive?

Welcome to Findlater Island, a small island off the coast of Washington with a quaint (relocated) English village and heaps of interesting characters.

French Twist is the first book of the humorous Findlater Island cozy mystery series. Fans of Agatha Raisin and Midsomer Murders will feel right at home with the adventures of amateur sleuth Amelia Feelgood.

I write cozy mysteries under the towering evergreens of the Pacific Northwest. I love that I can draw on my collection of half-started hobbies and former careers to create light-hearted stories!

A private island off the coast of Washington. A female sleuth, who is awaiting her chance to relocate from Seattle to France. Her boss is a slime ball, about to be married on the island, only he ends up murdered and she ends up with most of the island. Really. It's a great read. Loved it.

I hope there's a book 2! I've grown very fond of Amelia, and her unexpected adventures. The characters are great, the setting wonderful, and Sadie, well, best of all. I recommend this book to any and all who have a few hours to spend with a really great little book. 💖🐱🐾

This was a good book but like all these internet books it feels not finished so you have to get another book and another until you actually have if it had been printed a full book. But it was a good way to pass the afternoon .

This book was very easy reading. With many books I have to skip through some of the boring drawn out pages that have no bearing with the story but this was interesting all the way through. I found all of it to be true to what can actually happen in life and I enjoyed the surprise ending. Would read more from this author.

A quick and light read. I love the Amelia Feel good character. The story line moved quickly with multiple characters possibly being guilty of murder, with the murderer not being revealed until the end of the story. I look forward to reading more by this author.
