About this product
Product Information
A confession fifty years in the making puts everyone's favorite Paris d t ctive tr s chic , Aim e Leduc, on a collision course with the "Hand," a cabal of corrupt Parisian cops among who masterminded her father's murder--and among whose ranks he might have once found membership. When a friend's child is kidnapped while wearing her daughter's hoodie, Aim e realizes that the case has crossed into the realm of the personal in more ways than one. A dying man drags his oxygen machine into the office of ric Besson, a lawyer in Paris's 13th arrondissement. The old man, an accountant, is carrying a dilapidated notebook full of meticulous investment records. For decades, he has been helping a cadre of dirty cops launder stolen money. The notebook contains his full confession--he's waited 50 years to make it, and now it can't wait another day. He is adamant that Besson get the notebook into the hands of La Proc, Paris's chief prosecuting attorney, so the corruption can finally be brought to light. But en route to La Proc, Besson's courier--his assistant and nephew--is murdered, and the notebook disappears. Grief-stricken ric Besson tries to hire private investigator Aim e Leduc to find the notebook, but she is reluctant to get involved. Her father was a cop and was murdered by the same dirty syndicate the notebook implicates. She's not sure which she's more afraid of, the dangerous men who would kill for the notebook or the idea that her father's name might be among the dirty cops listed within it. Ultimately that's the reason she must take the case, which leads her across the Left Bank, from the Cambodian enclave of Khmer Rouge refugees to the ancient royal tapestry factories to the modern art galleries.

Reviews
Praise for Murder on the Left Bank "Even after 17 books, Ms. Black has intriguing corners of Paris to reveal--from an enclave of ateliers once home to the likes of Gauguin and Rodin to a crime-ridden neighborhood where 'no one wanted to be witnessed witnessing.'" --Tom Nolan, The Wall Street Journal "One of [Black's] strongest mysteries . . . But the real joy of Murder on the Left Bank is in its familiar cast and its thoughtful, witty, occasionally melancholy evocation of Paris, the city where we keep so many of our most beautiful ideas about what life might mean." --Charles Finch, USA Today "Cara Black's Aimée Leduc is a gem: a stylish, brave private detective (and new mom) who zips around Paris on a scooter . . . Black treats us to another of her beguiling tours of some of Paris' little-known corners." --Adam Woog, The Seattle Times "Marvelous . . . Murder on the Left Bank boasts all of Black's trademark charms, including deft plotting, sharp dialog and colorful sights and sounds." --Chicago Tribune "Since 1998's Murder in the Marais , I have looked forward to each new installment of Cara Black's series featuring Paris-based private investigator Aimée Leduc. I've read them all, and there isn't a clinker in the lot." --Bruce Tierney, BookPage "Cara Black takes the classic ingredients of the genre and puts a new Gallic spin on them. The finest PI series now being written." --Mick Herron, author of This Is What Happened and the Slough House series "Always entertaining . . . This well-crafted mystery is set on Paris's Left Bank, though not the chic environs of the fifth through seventh arrondissements; one of Black's strengths is showing us the grittier, everyday Paris." --Library Journal "Gratifyingly full of local Parisian color." --Kirkus Reviews "Particularly poignant." --Booklist "Black's plotting is intense and acutely paced, with twists in each chapter and a smooth and powerful narrative that sweeps through the book." --Kingdom Books Praise for Murder in Saint-Germain A Los Angeles Times National Bestseller A BBC Best Summer Read of 2017 "The abiding pleasure of this series is the chance to ride with a cabdriver who wants to discuss Sartre or just tearing around Paris on Aimée's pink Vespa, making stops at the Jardin du Luxembourg and the Île Saint-Louis, where Aimée has an apartment. Lucky girl." --The New York Times Book Review "An atmospheric thriller with a savvy take on international arms dealing." -- BBC's Between the Lines "The pace is, as ever, lickety-split, the sleuthing complex and the small pauses to savour Saint-Germain's glories delightfully educational." --The Toronto Star "Black's detective is hitting her post-pregnancy stride, bringing up bébé while battling the bad guys with the best of them." --Kirkus Reviews

Seller absolutely, stubbornly refused to communicate with me on the item. I bought it anyway because it was a good price. I sent several messages that went unanswered. So sad. Other than that the shipping and condition was good. The packaging poor and I was very surprised it wasn't damaged. No padding just 2 thin plastic bags.
