In a city of illusions, the most dangerous truth is love. David McIntosh arrives in Paris as a cynical journalist seeking a sensation. The disappearance of famous designer Jean-Paul Moran seems like the perfect story for a career breakthrough. But his encounter with Isabelle Moran-the missing man's enigmatic wife-changes all the rules of the game. Behind the elegant facade of Parisian haute couture lies a web of deadly secrets.
The designer's pregnant mistress is found dead. Millions of euros are laundered through art galleries. A powerful collector plays dangerous games. And Isabelle herself may be either a victim or an accomplice to murder. The deeper David delves into the investigation, the harder he falls for a woman he shouldn't trust. But when professional killers begin their hunt, and it emerges that the investigation itself is part of a British intelligence operation, David and Isabelle have only one weapon against lies and death-to trust each other.
A psychological thriller about how true love is born not from perfect circumstances, but in spite of them. About how truth can be more painful than any lie. And about how choosing between justice and law can cost you everything.
