Summary: Paris in the spring...gritty and compelling
Comment: I loved this book...offbeat and showing a gritty, intriguing part of Paris that I would never have known about. The historical research by the author amazed me, but it never intruded on the story thanks to the skillful weaving and multiple storylines. The breadth of characters make it a book I want to read again. And again. The author takes the reader to a complex and layered Belleville, the old working class quartier of Paris where Edith Piaf sang on the streets which is now home to North Africans, Islamic fundamentalists and Algerian Nationalists. This was written before 9/11 but how prophetic.
I highly recommend this!

Summary: ANOTHER EXCITING TRIP THROUGH PARIS
Comment: After reading Cara Black's Murder in the Marais, I eagerly awaited the publication of this novel. It did not disappoint. As in her first adventure, the protagonist Aimee Leduc takes the reader on a roller coaster ride through a Paris rich in atmospheric detail. This is a nail-biting tale written by a natural story teller whose research is impeccable. I'm looking forward to the next in the series, Murder in the Sentier.

Summary: Murder in Belleville
Comment: In Murder in Belleville, the author skillfully introduces the colorful but little known section of Paris. As in Marais, readers
are offered real time experience of Paris with its smell, sound and vision. It is a rare skill to bring the setting come to life
so vividly. Apparently, author has researched in depth on North African immigrant's experience in France. The plot is bit complicated but readers are rewarded with spine-tingling suspense throughout.
