商品簡介
Paris, November 1989: Aimée Leduc is going through a rough patch. A freshman at a cutthroat medical college, she is faced with suspension when someone sabotages one of her final projects. She's just discovered that her boyfriend, Florent, is getting engaged to another woman—an aristocrat like himself. And on top of that, Aimee's father has left town on a sudden mysterious business trip, and has asked her to look after the office in his absence—as if she didn't have enough else to do.
In spite of (or perhaps because of) these obstacles, Aimée volunteers to take on a case her father doesn't want—one involving a distant relative. Seventy-six-year-old Bruno Peltier has been shot in the back of the head, execution-style, on a quai by the Seine. One of the only scraps of evidence on his body is the number of a young woman at an escort club, and Bruno's daughter Elise refuses to believe that her father had a mistress. Aimée's only task is to follow up on the lead, not to solve the murder, and she thinks it will be a cut-and-dried infidelity case. But she soon finds herself dragged into a revenge scheme that leads back to the ravages of the second World War and a missing treasure trove of stolen Nazi gold.
