  42. Nice Work (If You Can Get It)

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 …

Nice Work (If You Can Get It)

Tucked between glitzy Monte Carlo and the red carpets of Cannes, Bellevue-Sur-Mer seems like the perfect place for an enterprising band of inhabitants to open a restaurant. Happily exiled from demanding families, they have found peace and Provençal cooking in the cobbled streets and azure vistas of their new home. But all is not as rosy as it seems, for it soon becomes clear that someone is trying to sabotage their project.

Meanwhile, the Cannes Film Festival is in full swing. Celebrities are flying in, luxury yachts arriving. As the excitement spills over into Bellevue-Sur-Mer, the residents realise they are embroiled in something much murkier than they could have imagined – and the race is on to get the restaurant open in time…
