Three Hours in Paris

By: Cara Black

Narrated by: Elisabeth Rodgers

In June of 1940, when Paris fell to the Nazis, Hitler spent a total of three hours in the City of Light-abruptly leaving, never to return. To this day, no one knows why.

The New York Times best-selling author of the Aimee Leduc investigations reimagines history in her masterful, pulse-pounding spy thriller, Three Hours in Paris.

Kate Rees, a young American markswoman, has been recruited by British intelligence to drop into Paris with a dangerous assignment: assassinate the Fuhrer. Wrecked by grief after a Luftwaffe bombing killed her husband and infant daughter, she is armed with a rifle, a vendetta, and a fierce resolve. But other than rushed and rudimentary instruction, she has no formal spy training. Thrust into the red-hot center of the war, a country girl from rural Oregon finds herself holding the fate of the world in her hands. When Kate misses her mark and the plan unravels, Kate is on the run for her life - all the time wrestling with the suspicion that the whole operation was a set-up.

Cara Black, doyenne of the Parisian crime novel, is at her best as she brings Occupation-era France to vivid life in this gripping story about one young woman with the temerity - and drive - to take on Hitler himself.

Black’s Best

Not being one for spy stories, this one ticked all the boxes for suspense. Well done, Cara.

Really liked it!!

It’s amazing when an author can take a moment in history and create a narrative that is captivating and mostly fiction. Character development was ok for the main players but others I had difficulty keeping track of. Definitely moments of suspense and intrigue!

Narration was excellent in keeping with the time period and genuine voice to the characters!!

Not to bad

Was hard to follow, but an ok read. Elizabeth Rogers is definitely one of my favorites and she did a great job!!

Edge of my seat!!

The story was gripping! I couldn't wait to hear what happened next. I think it was well written and I think.. with the exception of the French accent... the narration was excellent. If you are a World War II history buff this is an excellent novel for you.

So good!!

This book exceeded my expectations. I don’t typically gravitate towards historical type novels. But I’m so very impressed with the quality of the writing and excellent job on the narrator’s part.
