When I first read the summary of the book, I knew it would be good.  For someone like me who really enjoys murder mysteries, it's hard not to enjoy a book about murder, sex, betrayal, ancient artifacts, secret societies and everlasting life. I really dug into this book with a smile on my face, and I thought the french titles on the chapters was a nice touch with quite a creative flair.  I liked Maya a lot and thought she was pretty brave to go on a trip to Paris all by herself.  I certainly wouldn't!  Then for her to become so completely immersed in something that was way bigger than she ever bargained for, well, talk about bad luck! What was quite unexpected though was the extremely well written sex scenes.  I had no idea what I was expecting, but when Maya finally became intimate, it was H-O-T!  Not trashy, full of passion, and I couldn't turn the pages fast enough!I really hate to compare a book to a movie, but with the secret societies and everlasting life element of this book, I just couldn't help but think about it's similarities to National Treasure.  Since I absolutely adore that movie, that should tell you how much I enjoyed this book. If there was anything at all that I could change, it would be maybe just a little less French history, because not all of it was really needed to get the point across. I hope that Henry finds a way to turn this into a series, because I would love to see what happens between Maya and Simon!
