The way I realized the author writes mysteries is with light cliffhangers. The chapters are short and alternate points of view. Each chapter ends with a bit of a longing for wanting more but it’s not so much that you’ll get nightmares or stay up all night thinking about it if you don’t read the whole book in one sitting.
To some extent, I enjoyed that for the health of my sleeping habits. But on the other hand, I think the best mysteries on the ones I couldn’t put down.

Fun enough! Paris, weird Succession-style family, Eyes Wife Shut-esque night club, a whippet named Benoit, lots of incidental French, murder, mystery, pastries. Agatha Christie locked room style like Foley does well. I would like a whippet, a croissant, and a cigarette now please.
