A review by thejenstamps
Murder in the Marais by Cara Black

3.0

France during WW2 is one of my favorite topics to read about. There are so many stories there that one cannot even think about uncovering them all. While this book does not take place in Nazi occupied France, it does peak into the past of those who lived in Paris during the war and ties the characters and storyline in with modern day (well, 1990's Paris).

The author keeps you entertained throughout. It can be difficult to follow at times with all the characters she introduces, but if you keep with it, it all pieces together fairly nicely (although there are a few loose ends that left me wondering). This is book 1 of (so far) am 18 book detective series. I'm excited to pick up the second book and dive in.
