The Paris Diversion

A Novel

Audiobook

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 Expats.

“[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.

      Mozhan Marn�'s performance of the latest installment in Chris Pavone's Kate Moore series is perfection. Her voice is beautiful, her French pronunciation expert, her foreigners speaking French with bad accents ditto. Pavone has a lot of backstory to fill in, which makes for a discursive setup, but Marn� creates tension and pace with attention to expression, personality, and background colors, and just listening to her change voices with the subtlest of inflections is entertainment aplenty. The plot, once it gets up to speed, is propulsive. There's a bomb at the Gard du Nord, a suicide bomber at the Louvre, and an American Master of the Universe on the brink of a huge market-making deal is about to have a seriously bad day. A multifaceted pleasure. B.G. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
