Volume 1:
Aunt Aglaé's curious mansion

Jade, twenty-six, inherits a manor in Foisic, Brittany, a place that does not appear on any map. Strange... Besides, why did her great-aunt Aglaé, whom she never knew, bequeath her property to her? In any case, it is out of the question for a pure-blooded Parisian to settle in a godforsaken place! Jade has a specific idea in mind: to renovate the building in a few weeks, then sell it and thus make a nice capital gain. But her arrival in the village makes the curious tongues fork. To top it all off, a crooked real estate agent is eyeing Les Ibis, which he wants to buy at all costs... While Jade explores the different rooms of the manor, some of which are locked and conceal a thousand and one mysteries, she discovers a multitude of antique objects in the attic. And for good reason: Aglaé was an Egyptologist! As a bonus, the great-aunt has had fun scattering clues here and there, which lead to an enigmatic treasure dating from the reign of Louis XV. Helped by Alban, the village teacher, Corentin, a gifted child, and her faithful dachshund Rimbaud, Jade tries to unravel the mystery...

Rätsel haben kurze Beine - gemütliches Geheimnis
Cozy Breton mystery

And to begin, here is the small village of Foisic in Brittany.

It is not shown on any map, but the author was lucky enough to photograph it from the high white limestone cliff.

Admire the beachfront houses. They are painted in attractive hues. Lemon yellow, grenadine red, raspberry pink, mint green or eggplant purple blend wonderfully with the turquoise blue of the bay and the pristine sand.

Let us now focus on Jade and Rimbaud, the day of their arrival in Foisic.

The young woman displays a broad smile, but she is far from imagining what awaits her.

No matter, her adorable brown and tan short-haired dachshund is watching over her!

The interior is hardly more gleaming; creaks and strange noises intermingle in a sinister symphony.

The Galleon Cave.
