{"product_id":"le-chzateau-nick-hampton-9780648587491","title":"Le Château: A Very French Affair","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen a well-to-do extended English family find their perfect escape from the pressures of the city, a 17th Century château awaiting renovation in a quiet corner of rural France, everything is très bon. They are welcomed into the commune, make new friends, and enjoy the peaceful, rustic lifestyle - until a powerful politician with a Machiavellian agenda sets out to ruin them. Against a backdrop of intrigue, blackmail, and skeletons of Nazi collaboration from World War II, the evils of corruption envelop their Gallic dream in \u003cem\u003eLe Château: A Very French Affair\u003c\/em\u003e. It's both a cautionary tale and a spot-on study of what can happen when friendly, well-meaning outsiders - in this case a clan of Londoners - try to become insiders in a land with a very foreign culture. The author, Nick Hampton, a dual English-Australian national, wrote the novel from a position of great insight: his own home in the south of France.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nick Hampton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0648587495\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780648587491\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Origin(tm) Imprint\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/09\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.49d","brand":"Nick Hampton","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48136142717183,"sku":"9780648587491","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_52032e07-dca2-40e7-a58d-f8840a45b517.jpg?v=1770160796","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/le-chzateau-nick-hampton-9780648587491","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
