In the novel Sparkling Cyanide, Pierre is one of six junior or apprentice waiters under the leadership of Charles, the head waiter at the upscale Luxembourg restaurant. Pierre is the sixteen year old nephew of Charles, but this did not prevent him from being harassed, cursed and sworn at by Charles or the other senior waiters. On the night that George Barton died, Pierre was passing Barton's table carrying sauce for another waiter Roberts. Pierre noticed that Iris Marle had swept her handbag off the table as she got up to dance. Pierre picked it up and put it back on the table.
