<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>This is the sixth book by Margaret de Rohan, featuring police officer Philippe Maigret, and her second adult novel. It features some characters from previous books, but is a stand-alone book too. Her first adult novel was <em>Night train to Paris</em> (2016). </p><p><br></p><p>Set in Paris, the story is based on the terrorist attacks of Friday 13th November 2015, and the aftermath for those most closely involved. </p><p><br></p><p>It is early November 2015, and Philippe Maigret of the <em>Police Nationale</em> - recently promoted to the rank of Chief Superintendent - is under pressure: something's amiss in the City of Light. He knows it; feels it, but what is it? </p><p><br></p><p>On Friday 13th November 2015 he finds out when Paris comes under a sustained and deadly terrorist attack which will change everything - especially for him. What do these terrorists actually want? And who will protect Paris? Certainly not the French President. His predecessors didn't, and nor will his successors. </p><p><br></p><p>It is Philippe Maigret and his fellow officers who must hold the line with the help of Scotland Yard, Maigret's feisty wife, a girl with an illustrious name who prefers to be known as Flo, and Madeleine, an old street lady who can't remember her real name, but knows a thing or two about what's going on in Paris. But will this be enough?</p>
