After the disastrous end to her marriage back in her homeland, Paris offers a sparkling new opportunity that Charlotte "Charlie" James is determined to take with both hands. After landing the plum new job as correspondent for British-based newspaper The Times, Charlie's aware she'll have to work twice as hard as her male counterparts to prove her writing chops. When her first article covering the Circus Ball hosted by Lady Ashworth turns into a front-page homicide piece, Charlie finds herself intertwined with not only the local police, but also all of the murder suspects-- meaning she'll have to work to solve this mystery before any other reporter can steal her scoop.

Fun, flirty, and a little bit sexy-- THE PARIS MYSTERY is loaded with beautiful fashion, gorgeous men, and plenty of thrills. The story is every bit as lovely as that gorgeous cover, and is the promising start of Manning's newest cozy mystery series.
