Paris,1899. Capital of the crime passionel. The body of a
beautiful young woman is found in the Seine. She is the

young Jewish woman, whom gossip, back in Boston, has
linked to the journalist Rafael Norton. James, his elder

of vice and murderous entanglements. A gripping period
thriller, Paris requiem has Lisa Appignanesi writing in top,
