The Santinelli Case

Rachel Markham Mystery series

Paris, winter of 1947. The city is recovering from war, and its glittering hotels stand a short walk from crowded, impoverished streets. When Countess Santinelli is murdered in an art studio in Montmartre, Rachel and Jeremy are asked to look into the death. Their inquiry leads them from elegant streets and grand rooms to the shabby lanes of Montmartre, a neighbourhood full of exiles, artists, musicians and former resistance fighters. Along the way they uncover a black market that churns out prized paintings of doubtful origin. Rachel must confront her own fears as she and Jeremy work alongside the Sûreté to track down a clever killer hiding within the crowded city. It is a period whodunit, full of clues and set against the aftermath of war.
