For months, her bicycle tours through France have been blissfully uneventful, marred only by the occasional punctured tire or crushed croissant. Thus, when Sadie takes on a last-minute booking for a bridal party, she expects love, laughter, and champagne toasts. But more than pre-wedding jitters come along for the ride. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA bossy bride, rowdy party games, and a tagalong stranger threaten to turn Sadie's carefully planned itinerary into a tour de farce. She can shift gears to keep the bride happy, but she can't please everyone. A road-rager targets the group. So does a killer. To add to Sadie's horror, the murder victim is found wearing the bride's tiara. \n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile the police dig into the victim's past, Sadie suspects a deadly case of mistaken identity.
