MURDER IN MARSEILLE by Nupur Tustin

The Third Sophie's Adventure

Sophie is whisked off to Marseille, but not to watch over a Matisse with Madame Perrin, but a romantic rendezvous with her boyfriend. But her FBI beau gets sent to another city for a conference and she has to settle for a tour of the sites with her friend, Nicole. Plans change once again when the Matisse on loan from the museum is stolen! Now Sophie and are on the hunt to find the painting before it leaves Marseille!

One of the things I enjoyed most about MURDER IN MARSEILLE was learning some of the history of the city. I also enjoyed Sophie's investigation, with plenty of opportunity for some chuckles. A concise mystery, it still left plenty of room for a gaggle of suspects.

MURDER IN MARSEILLE is a quick trip through Marseille with disguises, plenty of art, and a satisfying mystery.
