1935 - BOOK ONE OF "THE SPARROW TRILOGY"
An English baronet dies and his son inherits the title, the fortune - and a French half-brother he didn't know existed.
A pigeon race, a murder, infidelity and a light-hearted love story bring a cast of exceptional characters to a remote French village beside the Atlantic. A Week at St-Andre is a tale of hostility, romance, courage and nobility set within a quirky - though charming - world of the last century. The author's unerring sense of time and place brings to vivid life the foibles, the fashions, the cuisine and the art deco style of the doomed Third Republic.

With great attention to detail, Mr. Nesbitt paints a picture of life in the 1930s French rural village, wrapped around a story of new relationships and strong passions. The character development was so strong that I felt I lived in the village and knew all of them.I recommend this book to anyone interested in authentic details of life in France in 1930.

A Week at StAndre Book One of the Sparrow Trilogy edition by Alec Nesbitt Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
A very pleasant read. The author's understanding of the history of surrounding each scenario makes the venture into the novel a lesson as well as an enjoyable experience.
Fans of Dorothy Sayers and P.D. James will be delighted by this first of a trilogy of novels by Nesbitt. A rich array of cuisine and couture punctuate plot and character development. I read this novel in three sittings as it drew me into a period of grand nobility amidst the rise of socialism and the labor movement of the 1930s.
Nesbitt has the audacity to present pigeon racing as the means of developing tension among residents of a town in rural France. Unlikely as it seems, it works! Each character is vibrant, easily liked or disliked according to the whimsy of the reader.
I look forward to reading the next two parts and following the emerging love story between the dashing Sir Vivien and the vivacious Amalie. The sensuality between these two is remarkably understated , yet richly provocative of human passion. This book is truly a worthy read.
I loved the story as I was reading the book it was as though I was there with them. It was a book that was hard to put down because you had to keep reading to see what was happening next.
What a wonderful book. The characters are all introduced in such a way that I had a strong grasp of who they are and how they're likely to feel. As the story starts to take surprising twists and turns later in the book, I felt I had a greater appreciation because I knew them so well. It was just a pleasure to read. I couldn't wait to get back to it each time I had to put it down. The mass of Downton Abbey fans would LOVE this story.
With great attention to detail, Mr. Nesbitt paints a picture of life in the 1930s French rural village, wrapped around a story of new relationships and strong passions. The character development was so strong that I felt I lived in the village and knew all of them.
I recommend this book to anyone interested in authentic details of life in France in 1930.
