Synopsis
In the South of France, Paul West has a license to thrill.
He has just received an offer he can't refuse: two weeks in the sun, all expenses paid, with a beautiful blonde called Gloria Monday.
But it soon becomes obvious that M, as Gloria likes to be known, is not really interested in holidaying with Paul. She has bigger fish to fry.

Or can it?

Review
'Clarke's latest book contains all the witty elements and double entendres which are characteristic of his style and is an entertaining and light-hearted page-turner.'
From the Publisher
If a Year in the Merde is Stephen Clarke's take on an 'Englishman abroad' book, Merde Actually his take on a romantic comedy, Merde Happens his take on a road novel - then Dial M for Merde is a crime novel when everything goes hilariously wrong. It's all set in the south of France, and revolves around a wedding and a plot to assassinate the most important man in France. It's vintage merde! I hope you laugh as much reading it as I did when the manuscript first came in. And no - we haven't been sued by the French president - yet ...

Hooking up with an English girl nicknamed M that he met in Vegas, it's a peaceful working holidayat first. Suddenly, M becomes secretive, going off to meetings and overreacting to questions about her whereabouts. Then, a bombshell. While M is at one of her meetings, Paul is told that she is not who she seems to be. That she is involved in a plot so sinister that she and Paul's every move has been watched since they arrived. And if Paul doesn't agree to stick with M and find out who she's working for, then he's going to prison for a long, long time as an accomplice. Suddenly the Cote d'Azur doesn't feel quite so sunny.
