Francine Witt never set out to be a detective. A wine blogger and reluctant online influencer with a wry charm and a flair for witticisms, she longs to be taken seriously as a journalist. But when murder intrudes, Francine’s blend of curiosity, charm, and sheer bloody-mindedness drags her headlong into investigations that prove as dangerous as they are intoxicating.
Praised by readers as “deceptively light-hearted but running much deeper than appearances would suggest,” this series delivers twist-filled mysteries with a feminist edge. From ancient Egypt to Napoleonic France, Francine’s cases are enriched with historical intrigue, sparkling humour, and a modern heroine who is anything but the typical amateur sleuth.
With her quips, insecurities, and questionable personal choices, Francine is part Bridget Jones, part investigative reporter, and part reluctant noir detective - a character whose voice is as addictive as the mysteries she unravels.
If you enjoy Agatha Christie’s twists, Dorothy L. Sayers’ depth, and heroines who balance their day jobs with a knack for uncovering secrets, you’ll love following Francine Witt through every witty and engrossing case.
