Paul guida lungo una stretta stradina tra alberi, e quando l'auto esce dal bosco, si trovano davanti all'Auberge, dove Chloé, una vivace bambina di nove anni, salta felice con la sua gatta Tomate. Questo angolo di paradiso, un'antica locanda in una valle soleggiata, è finalmente loro.

Ma la realtà è ben diversa: il sindaco Serge Papon, un potente nemico, desidera la locanda per sé e usa astuzie burocratiche e maldicenze per ostacolarli, sostenendo che gli inglesi non sanno cucinare e che il loro ristorante minaccia l'industria turistica locale.

Questo esordio frizzante di Julia Stagg ha conquistato i lettori in tutta Europa, trasportandoli in una regione magica ricca di odori e sapori irresistibili.
