Official synopsis Publisher
In this “deliciously twisty” (The Wall Street Journal) thriller with “the most clever plot twist of the year” (The Washington Post), expat Kate Moore discovers that a massive terror attack on Paris is not what it seems—from the New York Times bestselling author of The Doorman.
“[The Paris Diversion is] thriller writing at its absolute best . . . with echoes of Graham Greene and John le Carré.”—Jeffery Deaver
American expat Kate Moore drops her kids at the international school, makers her rounds of chores, and meets her husband Dexter at their regular café: a leisurely start to a normal day.
Across the Siene, tech CEO Hunter Forsyth stands on his balcony, wondering why his police escort just departed, and frustrated that his cell service has cut out.
And on the nearby rue de Rivoli, Mahmoud Khalid climbs out of an electrician’s van, elbows his way into the crowded courtyard of the world’s largest museum, and removes his windbreaker.
That’s when people start to scream.
