Murder in Passy

Aimee Leduc has been asked by her godfather, Morbier, to check in on his girlfriend.  Shortly after meeting her, Aimee finds the woman dead.  After being questioned by the police, Aimee is sure that they are on the wrong track.

As Aimee begins her investigation, she learns that there might be a connection to the Basque Natinalists.  However, it is Morbier who becomes the prime suspect.  Aimee wants to know who is framing him.  Morbier tells Aimee to trust no one.

Morbier has an informer that he is trying to protect.  Aimee feels that she needs to find the killer.  Morbier also hints to Aimee that there is a leak in the police force.

Then Aimee learns of the kidnapping of a young Spanish princess.  This too, seems connected to the Basque movement.  Will she die so that the Basques can achieve their goals?

Author Cara Black’s thriller has plenty of action ahead for Aimee.  Can she find the princess before she is killed and find information that will lead to the release of Morbier?  A good, fast paced read.
