Quelle horreur! The venerable Auberge des Deux Vallées has fallen into the hands of an English couple and that spells the end of gastronomic civilisation for the small commune of Fogas in the French Pyrenees.
The mayor is particularly incensed: he had intended his brother-in-law to take over. He determines to eject les rosbifs by any means possible, and before they have the chance to serve their first pastis, Paul and Lorna are up to their eyes in French bureaucracy.
But the mayor hasn''t reckoned on the locals. They have their own reasons for wanting l''Auberge to succeed and they take the young incomers to their hearts. If they pull together, can they outwit the mayor or will l''Auberge end up in the merde?
