Sieste in Peace

an artful pageturner of a cozy mystery

By: Christa Bakker

A retreat into the wellness of art turns into a brush with murder I’m worried. Why is my sexy assistant acting so strangely? Is he connected to the three deaths that occurred in and around Saint-Maurice on the same day? I promised the police that I, Julie Belmain, photographer extraordinaire, wouldn’t investigate, but this time it’s personal. With a friend under suspicion of murder and my mother on my case about the involvement of a famous spa resort, it’s impossible for me to keep my promise, but my assistant proves unreliable. Why is he late for work? Why does he disappear for days on end? But most importantly, why does he get shot right when my ex-husband is released from jail?

The Cold Case: a Vintage Murder

A sassy, smart, and snotty cozy mystery

By: Christa Bakker

Who killed the Woman in the Wine? It’s a question that has haunted the village for over thirty years, but the woman’s daughter is convinced I, Julie Belmain, can come up with an answer. No one cares that I have the worst cold ever. And no one cares – because no one knows – that the daughter’s boyfriend is also my old crush. All I want to do is run into his arms... but all he wants is for me to crack an unsolved murder case that’s older than I am. Do I really want to poke my snotty nose into my neighbours’ and friends’ affairs? When the cold trail heats up in the old hotel I’ve invested in, I don’t have much choice. Diving into the past brings up shameful secrets and private grudges that send shock waves through the village. No one – including my own mother – can escape the consequences. If I keep digging into the past, we may end up with another death...

Beaujolais Blood

By: Christa Bakker

A locked room in a castle contains a dead body. Or does it? Trapped in a medieval wine château, a fierce snowstorm raging outside. This is not how I imagined celebrating the Beaujolais Nouveau. A sparkling extravaganza had seemed the perfect escape from ordinary life in Saint-Maurice, but now I’m stuck with the local crème de la crème, who all hate each other. What was supposed to be a festive evening of sipping wine by a crackling fire turns into a web of intrigue and suspicion. Tensions run high as accusations fly, but the guests are shocked into silence when one of them is found murdered in a locked room. With no way out and the police unable to reach us, I’m forced to investigate not only who the killer is, but how and why they made the body disappear. The secrets and lies of the Beaujolais jet-set send me round in circles, but if I can’t solve this baffling puzzle, none of us will make it out of the castle alive.

The moment he arrives, the village is overrun with poison pen letters, and the old postmistress turns up dead.

The Globalized Woman

Reports from a Future of Inequality

By: Christa Wichterich

Globalization creates growth without jobs in the North, structural adjustment in the South, privatization in the East and the dismantling of states everywhere. The author of this extraordinary book uses a mixture of case studies, examples and quotations to illustrate some hard facts. She looks at women across the world to show how their lives have been turned upside down, by industrialization in the South and a return to homeworking in the North. From New York to Phnom Penh, from Moscow to Dakar, we see the devastating effects of the unfettered power of transnational corporations on women's lives.
