    About this audiobook

    Cara Black's riveting 19th installment in her New York Times bestselling Parisian detective series entangles private investigator Aimee Leduc in a dangerous web of international spycraft, post-colonial Franco-African politics, and neighborhood secrets in Paris's 12th arrondissement. Parisian private investigator Aimee Leduc is about to go onstage to deliver the keynote address at a tech conference that is sure to secure Leduc Detective some much-needed business contracts when she gets an emergency phone call from her daughter's playgroup: Aimee's own mother, who was supposed to pick Chloe up, never showed. Abandoning her hard-won speaking gig, Aimee rushes to get Chloe, annoyed that her mother has let her down yet again. But as Aimee and Chloe are leaving the playground, Aimee witnesses the body of a homeless woman being wheeled away from the neighboring convent, where nuns run a soup kitchen. The last person anyone saw the dead woman talking to was Aimee's mother, who has vanished. Trying to figure out what happened to Sydney Leduc, Aimee tracks down the dead woman's possessions, which include a huge amount of cash. What did Sydney stumble into? Is she in trouble?

    • 5/5
      The detailed descriptions of Paris, copious use of French phrases and a heroine that motors around on a Vespa, her thrift store Hermes scarf around her neck--it's bittersweet to discover a series my mom would have loved so much. Aimee Leduc is the tres chic star of this long running series. Set at the end of the 90's, she and her investigative partner Rene do things the old fashioned way--lots of legwork, not too many toys. Aimee's mother has mysteriously disappeared. A body and a clue lead Aimee down many rabbit holes, involving some old friends of her mother's in the business and what is current for the time in the Cote d'Ivoire. Really interesting, unique characters and well written, I am glad I gave this a chance.
