Takes readers on a ride into the old medieval quarter of Paris with its winding streets, ghosts and secrets buried in history. Not only an homage to the crime fiction genre, Paris Noir is also an invitation to some of the best French fiction and offers readers an explosive and poetic cocktail of crime, gunfights and twisted love stories.
