Publisher Comments:

Aimée Leduc, a Parisian private investigator, has always sworn she would stick to tech investigation—no criminal cases for her. Especially since her father, the late police detective, was killed in the line of duty. But when an old Jewish man approaches Aimée with a top-secret decoding job on behalf of a woman in his synagogue, Aimée unwittingly takes on more than she was expecting. When she goes to drop off her findings at her client's house in the Marais, Paris's historic Jewish quarter, she finds the old woman strangled to death, a swastika carved on her forehead. With the help of her partner, René, Aimée sets out to solve this horrendous crime, but finds herself in an increasingly dangerous web of ancient secrets and buried war crimes.

Synopsis:

Aimee Leduc, the intrepid young French-American detective, is hired to investigate the grisly murder of an old Jewish woman in the Marais district of Paris. Her undercover search leads to a neo-Nazi group and requires that she play a dangerous game involving current politics and old war crimes.

Synopsis:

The first installment in the Anthony Award-nominated series set in Paris, featuring Detective Aimée Leduc. Other books in the series, also available from Soho: Murder in the Sentier, Murder in Belleville, and Murder in the Bastille.

"A Paris so real one can hear and smell the street. Her characters are just as real. . . . Compelling."—Publishers Weekly, starred
