Charming and With His Heart in the Right Place: The Reluctant Hitman and His Most Difficult Case
Lucien Comte de Chacarasse enjoys life on the Côte d’Azur to the fullest: azure blue water, Provençal delicacies and the lightness of summer. But then his uncle Edmond brings him a new murder contract. The victim, a wealthy Argentinean, lives in Sardinia. And the man must die before his much older wife. Edmond refuses to reveal why. Lucien is forced to travel to the Italian Mediterranean island. While spying on his victim, he has a brilliant idea: he stages a kidnapping – and intervenes at the last moment. The shocked Argentine is so grateful to Lucien that he hires him as his bodyguard. But how can Lucien fulfil his mission without killing anyone?
Back in the south of France, Lucien finds himself in the line of fire from all sides. A young woman is after his life – a completely unfamiliar situation for Lucien, the reluctant hitman. He has to make some creative decisions...
»Lucien carries out his assignments in a witty, refreshing and creative way. Readers look forward to new adventures.«
