FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE EXPATS 'Smart, sophisticated and suspenseful.' HARLAN COBEN 'Sleek, cunning and breakneck.' MEGAN ABBOTT 'Top-tier.' NEW YORK TIMES Kate Moore - a mother with an interesting past - is living the quiet life in another European city, or trying to. On her way to drop her children off at school in the city centre, the cafes and streets of Paris start to come alive around her. Meanwhile, Kate's husband Dex, charged with finding a gift for their son's birthday, is struggling to focus on the job in hand. A financial matter at work is playing on his mind. As worrying reports begin to circulate from key locations around the city, and the sound of wailing sirens becomes increasingly hard to ignore, could their day and, indeed, their lives be about to change forever? Readers were gripped by The Paris Diversion: 'Engrossing, clever, great plot!' 'Drags you along at lightning speed as it twists and turns .

I've found another favorite writer.' 'For 370 pages I felt like I was holding my breath.'.
