Descrizione articolo
“Addictive ... Leduc is always a reliable and charming guide to the city's lesser-known corners.”
—Seattle Times
“A staccato tour de force, it’s as action- and intrigue packed as others in the series.... Also typically, while chasing the bad guys Aimée not only pounds the Parisian pavement, but also boldly scales rooftops and climbs in sewers. All this, while wearing heals and vintage clothing; Aimée is as bold and classy as ever.”
—Sacramento News and Review
“The ideal mix of the personal, the political, the puzzling and the Parisian make Aimée’s latest a perfect pleasure.”
—Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
“Aimée is a fantastic guide as she invites the reader along on an excursion of Paris on the back of her scooter, which most tourists traveling to the City of Light never see. Back streets and alleys, smoky bistros and Paris mansions set the backdrop for this mystery.”
—New York Journal of Books
“Cara Black of San Francisco is one of our favorite mystery authors.”
—Sacramento Bee
“Black knows how to build up real suspense.... Go to Paris. Follow Aimée. Bon soir.”
—Lincoln Journal Star
“The rest of us will follow Aimee anywhere, the blinder the alley the better, thrilled to hitch a ride on the back of her scooter.”
—Booklist
“Full of French political intrigue ... atmospheric.”
—Publishers Weekly
“By blending a murder investigation with a tale of political intrigue, Cara Black’s newest book effectively combines elements of both mystery and thriller. Murder in Passy retains all the emotional excitement of a thriller, but it also manages to provide a logically satisfying, yet still surprising, solution to Xavierre’s murder.”
—Mystery Series Examiner
Praise for the Aimée Leduc series
“No contemporary writer of noir mysteries evokes the spirit of Paris more than Cara Black in her atmospheric series starring P.I. Aimée Leduc.... Fearless, risk-taking Aimée is constantly running, hiding, fighting and risking her life—all while dressed in vintage Chanel and Dior and Louboutin heels.”
—USA Today
“If you’ve never been to Paris, or you’d like to go back soon, let Cara Black transport you there.”
—Linda Fairstein
“Black does for Paris what Dashiell Hammett did for San Francisco. She makes the city shimmer.”
—Plain Dealer (Cleveland)
“Charming.... Aimée is one of those blithe spirits who can walk you through the city’s historical streets and byways with their eyes closed.”
—The New York Times Book Review
“Leduc has such a thorough grasp of the practicalities of investigation, plus a penchant for undercover work that will have readers on pins and needles.”
—San Francisco Chronicle
