Cara Black - celebrate 20 years of Aimée Leduc
We're celebrating the 20th anniversary of Aimée Leduc's adventures in Paris with a visit from Cara Black, whose latest mystery novel is Murder in Bel-Air. This 19th installment finds PI Leduc in a dangerous web of international spycraft, post-colonial Franco-African politics, and neighborhood secrets in Paris's 12th arrondissement. Join us Wednesday, June 12, 7 pm, at Boswell.
Our evening is cosponsored by Alliance Française de Milwaukee and Crimespree Magazine and will feature light refreshments from North Shore Boulangerie. Register for the event by on-sale date (June 4, 8 am) and get 20% off on Murder in Bel-Air. Note that Black's novels will be available at the event, but you must pre-register to get the discounted price. Yes, you will be able to pick up your book early, anytime after June 4, 10 am, when we open.
Parisian private investigator Aimée Leduc is about to go onstage to deliver the keynote address at a tech conference that is sure to secure Leduc Detective some much-needed business contracts when she gets an emergency phone call from her daughters playgroup: Aimées own mother, who was supposed to pick Chloe up, never showed. Abandoning her hard-won speaking gig, Aimée rushes to get Chloe, annoyed that her mother has let her down yet again.
But as Aimée and Chloe are leaving the playground, Aimée witnesses the body of a homeless woman being wheeled away from the neighboring convent, where nuns run a soup kitchen. The last person anyone saw the dead woman talking to was Aimées mother, who has vanished. Trying to figure out what happened to Sydney Leduc, Aimée tracks down the dead womans possessions, which include a huge amount of cash. What did Sydney stumble into? Is she in trouble?
How wonderful that we're getting to celebrate Aimée Leduc's anniversary with you and Cara Black. Register now for our event on Wednesday, June 12, 7 pm, at Boswell.
