Used book – C'est bon mais c'est chaud, Antoine de Caunes

Take a New York private eye named Sam Murchinson, equip him with a .357 Magnum, and above all, don't forget to take care of his liver! Then put him on the trail of a very pretty girl, eighteen-year-old Maria-Liza, who has deserted her wealthy coffee magnate father's family home for the singer of a rock band where things are rather "dodgy" or, if you prefer, rather "seedy"! Send your hero on a round-trip flight from New York to Paris. Mission: bring back the beautiful ingenue... Accompany all of this with some oysters, Italian and Chinese dishes. Wash it down with Jack Daniels or Schlitz beer. And enjoy it piping hot. It's so good you won't soon forget Chef Antoine's recipe! "C'est bon mais c'est chaud" (It's Good But It's Hot) is Antoine de Caunes' first novel.
