Part of Series
Part Two of the trilogy into policeman Pascal d'Onscon's adventures in France. Merle Bennett met Pascal in 'Blackbird Fly.' He is a wine fraud investigator with the Police Nationale. First read number one in the trilogy: 'Bottle of Lies,' where Pascal is sent to Champagne to investigate a sham label on a bottle of the iconic bubbly. While in the 'Grand Est' — the eastern part of Franc e—he must also rescue his older sister, Suzette, from an uncomfortable personal situation, taking him with her when he goes home. Now, in this second part, 'Outside the Bubble' brings Pascal back to Merle Bennett in the Dordogne. But whether he can stay is another kettle of "poisson."
