Paris City of Night

A Riveting Novel of Suspense Mystery Murder and Neo-NAZI Terror with a Wicked Twist set in Contemporary Paris

By: David Downie

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Paris aka the City of Light is alluring and seductive but by no means benign, as vintage photography expert and former paparazzo Jay Grant discovers in this fast-paced thriller set in contemporary Paris. Orange alerts for terrorism make people trigger-happy. Red and black alerts are much worse. They transform the City of Light into a dangerous City of Night...

The hero of Paris City of Night is Jay Anthony Grant, alias JAG. He's the son of a recently deceased CIA officer and he has serious issues about his spook father's murky past. JAG plans to meet up with his long-time fiancée and spend the Christmastime vacation in Paris and Normandy but the innocent trip draws JAG and Amy into a tangled Parisian web of intrigue. An orange alert for terror attacks is in force as New Year's Eves looms. The twinkling Eiffel Tower shows the countdown. Fanatics on both sides of the terror divide--Islamists and Christian fundamentalists--are out to make JAG s life very unpleasant.

Paris City of Night is a suspenseful page-turner worthy of Alfred Hitchcock. This classic thriller based around terrorism, the CIA and vintage photography is set in contemporary Paris. This Paris is not the sparkling City of Light the tourists know but a shadowy place full of spies, cheats, forgers, fences, murderers, U.S. intelligence operatives and aging Cold Warriors.

Best to start reading this one early in the evening... unless, that is, you don t mind losing a night's sleep! That is what the best-selling thriller author David Hunt (William Bayer) says of Paris City of Night. Author Anton Gill, creator of the world-best-selling Egyptian Mysteries, calls the novel, Unputdownable, a real page-turner. No one should miss this. International bestselling author Diane Johnson of Le Divorce thinks Paris City of Night is a wild ride through the dark side of Paris.
