The third Aimée Leduc Investigation set in Paris
When Parisian private investigator Aimée Leduc picks up the phone one
hot July afternoon, the call turns her life upside-down. The voice on
the other end, with its heavy German accent, belongs to a woman named
Jutta Hald. Jutta claims to have shared a jail cell with Aimée's
long-lost mother, a suspected terrorist on Interpol's most wanted list.
If Aimée wants to learn the truth about her mother, she is to meet Jutta
at a rendezvous point in an ancient tower in the Sentier. But when Aimée
arrives, Jutta is dead, shot in the head at close range.
Aimée realizes she has stumbled into something bigger than Jutta let on,
and that her own life is in danger. She has a lot of unsolved mysteries
in front of her: Jutta Hald's murder, resurfaced materials from Sydney
Leduc's terrorist activities in the 1970s, police suppression of
important information. The question is, can Aimée put the pieces
together before someone else ends up dead?
