Praise for Murder on the Ile Saint-Louis
"This very dark Euro-thriller will have you wondering if it's not too late to book that summer vacation to Paris you always wanted. If time and money are stopping you, reading Murder on the Ile Saint-Louis may be a smart alternative."
USA Today
"Now that every other mainstream mystery seems awash in gory religious rituals, it has fallen to independent publishers to keep a fresh perspective on the genre. Soho Press, one of the more enterprising of these small houses, has a keen nose for offbeat detectives who ply their trade in foreign locales. The trendy byways of Paris belong to Aime Leduc, the clever young sleuth in a winning series by Cara Black . . . The energetic plot is thick with intrigue and danger."
The New York Times Book Review
