Description

When an old school friend is mugged after taking photographs at a wealthy magazine publisher's chateau, a French-American translator teams up with a disgruntled FBI agent to infiltrate a violent organized crime operation in a tony landscape of villas and galleries, navigating a lethal atmosphere of art, money and murder. When her school pal is mugged on the Paris metro, recently-returned translator Alex Thornhill becomes certain that powerful magazine publisher Jacques Mornnais is behind the attack. Alex adopts a false identity and joins Mornnais' company in his secluded villa, discovering an entire operation of stolen paintings and international art cons. She begins a tenuous relationship with disgruntled FBI agent Eugene Spector, who is working his own investigation of the forgers. Alex helps Eugene get closer to the forgery kingpin until they both find themselves in the crosshairs of Mornnais' international assassins. Pulsing with an exquisite, authentic eye for the richly-textured world its characters inhabit, A Forgery in Paris is the first book in the series French Deception. It features compelling characters, surprising plot twists, and continental romance for its kick-ass female heroine. The following books continue Janice Nagourney's page-turning series with novels focusing on the growing romance between Alex and Eugene as they push into a web of organized crime in the art world in Lyon, Marseilles, and Toulouse.M.F
