Sunday Times Bestseller Theresa is desperate for a change. Forced into early retirement, tired of babysitting her bossy daughter's obnoxious children, she sells her house and moves to a picture-perfect town, just outside Nice. Once the hideaway of artists and writers, Bellevue-Sur-Mer is now home to the odd movie star and, as Theresa discovers, a close-knit set of expats. Settling to the gentle rhythm of the seaside, Theresa embraces her new-found friendships and freedom. But life is never as simple as it seems, and when skeletons fall out of several closets, Theresa starts to wonder if life on the French Riviera is quite as nice as it first appeared ...

A hugely enjoyable romp of a novel with eccentric characters, a delightful background and a savoury tang of crime
Katie Fforde
A warm, light-hearted, fast-paced tale that fans of Peter Mayle will enjoy
Joanne Harris
A very witty novel by a very witty woman. Hugely entertaining
Julian Fellowes
Utterly delicious in every way
Joanna Lumley
A sunny, funny debut novel ... a keenly observed, rollicking tale of mature expats reinventing themselves on the French Riviera
Mail on Sunday
This debut from national treasure actress Celia perfectly captures the colour of ex-pat life and the glitz and glamour of the South of France. A shaft of early summer sunshine, a funny, spirited read
Daily Mail
It's lots of fun, with adventure at a certain age as its driving force, and sun-kissed recipes as chapter breaks
