Murder at the Lanterne Rouge Audiobook

" Lots of characters, lots of action. Keep track! "

" Another escape to Paris. Cara Black is so good at depicting Paris that you feel like you are there. Her character Aimee is fiercely independent except for her bad boys. Interesting insight to the Chinese sweatshops in Paris. "

" Seems to me I tried an earlier title in this series and had the same reaction. The Paris is great and I enjoy learning about it. However, the title character is annoying and dresses all wrong for running around investigating (high-heeled boots? miniskirts?). Her partner, Rene, gets to be the noble lonely one, heart of gold, impulsive. If I don't like at least one of the main characters, I don't want to spend time with them. So I don't. "

" I have really enjoyed this series and was looking forward to reading this one. Too bad it felt like Black was just trying on every plot idea she's ever had and throwing them in as she went: Chinese gangs, fiber optics companies, medieval alchemy, ritualistic hazing of engineering students, every branch of law enforcement, and even the Resistance. This book was a mess. "

" I like the setting and atmosphere Black creates, and in this series she does a creditable job of character development and plotting. In this latest outing, however, I got a little lost in the twists and turns of the plot. Part of that is my own fault; I read these kinds of books for entertainment, and don't work very hard at paying attention to details. "

" pleasure reading particularly for Paris! "

" Didn't finish it...it was okay, but not exciting enough to keep my attention. "

" Ugh - what was up with all the designer clothes references? Totally not relevant to the story. Also, didn't really even care who-dunnit... cause I wasn't really sure what they dun. "

" Another in the excellent series of Aimee Leduc mystery novels ... good characters, wonderful sense of Paris. "

" This was my first Aimee Ledu novel from Cara Black and I plan to read a few others. I definitely like the location set in the Chinatown district of Paris. The plot was enough to keep me interested and creative enough. I like the offerings from SOHO Crime. "

" The best in the series so far. Less of her mother and much more about the Chinese immigration problems. Superb. "

" I love this series, but I don't think this is the best one in it. "

" Another easy escape into Paris. Aimee had a few more temper tantrums than usual; I didn't get her (over)reaction. It may have been b/c I was miffed that Aimee had a bigger role than Paris & that's not why I read this series. "

" Can't wait for the next installment... "

" 3.5. Another enjoyable one :) "

" Mediocre to poor story. I finished it because I had nothing else to read at the time. Plus I do not generally care for series books with the same character as the lead hero or heroine. "

" Difficult to read because of all the French phrases and names. "

" This fast-paced and atmospheric mystery set in Paris is the first Aimee Leduc novel I've read. I look forward to checking out the earlier books in the series. "

" Love all of these books! "

" A bit of mental fluff and vicarious travel for summer reading, and always enjoyable for the quick pace and fun even if not always coherent much less believable plot lines. "
