title: Murder in Montmartre (Aimee Leduc Investigations, No. 6)
author:  Cara Black 
description: Intrepid Aime Leduc strives to clear the name of a childhood friend, policewoman Laure Rousseau, who's charged with shooting her partner to death, in Black's chilling sixth novel to feature the Paris PI (after 2005's <i>Murder in Clichy</i>). Aime knows the solution to proving Laure's innocence lies somewhere in the hilltop maze of the seedy Montmartre neighborhoodperhaps with a boy who says he witnessed the murder, or an aging prostitute, or any of a number of toughs or even Corsican separatists. Set in January 1995, the book vividly depicts a gritty, working-class part of Paris where rents don't always get paid and not everyone has a bed for the night. Black succeeds in making the reader feel the damp, the snow, the fear. In the process of helping Laure, Aime not only resolves a past police scandal involving her dead father but gains in compassion and wisdom. <i>(Mar.)</i> <br />Copyright  Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
