ReviewsPraise 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 Aimee 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 Praise for the Aimee Leduc series "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 "Haunting." -The New York Times Book Review "One of the best heroines in crime fiction." -Lee Child "She makes Paris come alive as no one else has since Georges Simenon." -Stuart Kaminsky "If you've never been to Paris, or you'd like to go back soon, let Cara Black transport you there." -Linda Fairstein "One of the best new writers in the field today." -Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
