Murder in Paradise
This book is a light hearted examination of the activities of the northern Europeans who settled in Roussillon hoping for the 'good life'. It not only sets the scene and describes the activities of the many Europeans who settled here, but also describes the area and its many attractions from palaces of the Kings of Majorca in Perpignan and Collioure to the extensive mountain walks in the Pyrenées. Not forgetting the mysterious exploits of the Cathars and Popes to stamp out heresy. For anyone planning to visit the area the book gives a fairly comprehensive idea of what to expect and why so many are attracted to setlle in this region.
