A review by christopherborum
Murder in the Marais by Cara Black

2.0

This was an interesting novel that spanned 1993 Paris and the Nazi Occupation. I liked Aimee Leduc, the lead, but the story was too convoluted and I lost track of a couple of characters. There were one or two coincidences too many; the one that made me shake my head was Leduc

. Would she have sussed out all the connections without that information? I'm not sure how she could have. I felt that there was also a little puffery. I understand wanting to create atmosphere, but some of the descriptions could have been edited down.

I will read another in this series, however, if it comes along.
