Summary:
"Beyond the main street of Les Laveuses runs the Loire, smooth and
brown as a sunning snake - but hiding a deadly undertow beneath its
moving surface. This is where Framboise, a secretive widow named
after a raspberry liqueur, plies her culinary trade at the creperie -
and lets memory play strange games." "Into this world comes the
threat of revelation as Framboise's nephew - a profiteering Parisian
- attempts to exploit the growing success of the country recipes she
has inherited from her mother, a woman remembered with contempt by
the villagers of Les Laveuses. As the spilt blood of a tragic wartime
childhood flows again, exposure beckons for Framboise, the widow with
an invented past."--BOOK JACKET.
