The Corsican Caper is another of Peter Mayles' light, summer reading type thrillers, with beaucoup good food and wine mingled throughout. I have been enjoying his various "Capers" with a few yet to read. Don't expect anything deep, or even thought-provoking here. Just frothy entertainment. Despite which, you will get lots of cooking inspiration, and ideas for wine selections. From the Publisher: In The Corsican Caper, "Master sleuth, Sam Levitt....investigates a case of deadly intrigue among the Riviera's jet set." His good friend, billionaire Francis Reboul, is being stalked and pressured to sell his villa to a Russian tycoon, who stops at nothing in getting what he wants.
