Monsieur Pamplemousse And the Militant Midwives (2012)
“‘By rights, Pommes Frites should be doing the honours,’ said Monsieur Pamplemousse, moving his precious boules set to one side as his friend joined them. ‘Or I ought to be doing it on his behalf. If you hadn’t called out when you did, he wouldn’t be here now.’ ‘I’ll take a rain cheque.’ Mr Pickering pulled up a chair. ‘Anyway, if you want my opinion, it’s a good thing we made ourselves scarce when we did. It saved us having to answer a lot of tedious questions.’ Monsieur Pamplemousse wasn’t s...o sure. He’d heard the sound of police sirens coming from all directions while they were beating a hasty retreat along the rue Saint Dominique.
Admittedly, it had been in the opposite direction to the one the escaping car had taken, but once descriptions had been circulated it would be more a matter of putting off the evil moment. The police would lose no time in putting two and two together, particularly when they got to hear about the activities of a certain bloodhound, known to have already blotted his copybook once that week.MoreLess
