Well Done!

Gilles LEGARDINIER

Four intertwined destinies under the same roof that will learn to settle in, get to know and eventually love each other.

Tired of a world that he no longer feels part of, Andrew Blake, in his sixties and still facetious, stages his disappearance and leaves the head of his small company in London to find a job as a butler in France.
Upon his arrival at the Beauvillier Manor, he goes beyond simply reinventing himself. Between Madame Nathalie, his boss crowned in mystery, Odile, the cantankerous cook who uses her talents only for her cat, Manon the young maid tormented by her first love and Philippe, the wacky manager, Andrew brings new life to the inhabitants of the manor cats included.
He who was looking for a new beginning will first have to get back in touch with his past.

- After a first comedy that surprised, moved and thrilled a large number of readers in France and abroad, Gilles Legardinier is back with a human adventure full of madness, emotion and humor that speaks to all, regardless of their age.

Gilles Legardinier is the 4th bestselling French author and a all-around writer of feel-good novels, thrillers (which won various awards) and children books as well.
