Dial M for Merde - Stephen Clarke

After his disastrous American adventures, Paul West is back in France, and this time he'll be kicking up merde all along the Cote d'Azur. Hooking up with an English girl nicknamed M that he met in Vegas, it's a peaceful working holiday-at 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
