A Dead American In Paris : The 3rd Republic Novels : Volume Two : Seth Lynch

1931

Arty Homebrook lived and died in a world of sleaze which stretched from Chicago to Paris but never beyond the gutter.

He'd been sleeping with Madame Fulton, which is why Harry Fulton promised to kill him. So far as the Paris Police are concerned it's an open and shut case. Harry's father has other ideas and hires Salazar to investigate.

As Salazar gets to grips with the case he’s dragged reluctantly into an unpleasant underworld of infidelity, blackmail, backstreet abortions and murder.

Salazar is far too inquisitive to walk away and far too stubborn to know what's for the best. So he wakes up each hungover morning, blinks into the sunlight, and presses on until it's his life on the line. Then he presses on some more, just for the hell of it.

Published in a new edition for 2019 A Dead American In Paris is the 2nd volume of Seth Lynch's 3rd Republic Novels.

Praise for A Dead American In Paris

"If you want a book which has fast paced action, plenty of snappy lines and transports you to another time then Salazar delivers."

"Salazar is a fascinating character, with a wonderful wry and dry sense of humour.

"One of the best novels I've read all year."
