Last Stop: Paris

When readers last saw Eddie Grant in Treasure of Saint-Lazare, he was hot on the trail of Nazi war loot in the company of his on-again, off-again lover, Jen. As readers and listeners return to Eddie's shadowy world of undercover deals and thugs in the employ of crime bosses, they find a quieter, more mature Eddie, now married to Aurelie, a scholar of some note, and living in pleasant domestic bliss. Onto this romantic scene come several of Eddie's friends, who alert him to suspicious activity within his social circle, involving a man with criminal intentions and an interest in gold. Shortly afterward, a mysterious murder implicates another character from Eddie's past. As he looks into the matter, Aurelie soon finds herself in danger; at the same time, Jen reappears in Eddie's life, and he's simultaneously drawn to her and eager to avoid falling into bed with her again. Soon, he and his comrades must track down another ring of criminals and protect themselves from fatal retribution.
