Review: Psychologically Complex Muder Mystery
Rating: 4 out of 5

An intriguing and complexly plotted French mystery, in its first translation into English. I liked especially the psychology underpinning this novel:  the "front face" of the mystery is a felonious crime in rural France,  engaging the attention and investigation of a talented Parisian defense attorney. The "real" mystery lives on inside the mind of lawyer Catherine Monsigny, an exemplar of the persistence of memory--the scarce remembrance of the murder of her mother.I reviewed an ARC provided by the publisher for the sole purpose of my fair and honest review. No fees were exchanged.
