Three Hours In Paris

Bok av Cara Black
History books agree that in June of 1940, after Paris had fallen to the Nazis, Hitler spent a total of three hours in the City of Light. What has been lost to posterity is why he left in such a hurry-and why he never came back. Three Hours to Paris is the story of Kate Rees, the young American markswoman who has been recruited by British intelligence to drop into Paris on the dangerous business of trying to assassinate the Fuhrer. A country girl from rural Oregon-a grieving widow with no spy training but a vendetta and a lot of gumption-now has the state of the entire war in her hands. When the hit goes badly wrong, Kate is on the run for her life-all the time wrestling with the suspicion that the whole operation was a set-up. Beloved author Cara Black-author of the New York Times bestselling Aimée Leduc Parisian private investigator series-brings Occupation-era Paris to vivid life in this pulse-pounding, richly detailed story about one young American woman with the moxie to take on Hitler himself.
