Witness at the Bridge [Paperback]

Gini Anding (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 15, 2005

A late-night phone call awakens Inspector Jean-Michel Jolivet and his irrepressible American friend, Amy Page: a man has been found brutally murdered at the foot of the Pont Louis-Philippe. Curiously, the body has been posed theatrically, perhaps to send a message.

Amy is surprised to discover that the victim is an acquaintance of hers and that she may have been the last person to see him. As she and Jean-Michel sift through codes, ciphers, and more violent murders, they uncover an international struggle for control of the new designer drug Bliss.

Were it not for her deepening relationship with Jean-Michel and her enthusiasm for Paris—especially the Ile Saint-Louis and its unique characters—Amy would find it difficult to sustain what is about to engulf her and Jean-Michel.

4.0 out of 5 stars Witness at the Bridge, August 30, 2007

By 

Anne K. Edwards "AKE" (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Witness at the Bridge (Paperback)

Amy Page and Jean-Michel Jolivet are in love and trouble has found them
again. The security of the Ile Saint-Louis is disrupted by a murder and
attack on Amy that leaves her with a gunshot wound and having killed a man.
A second attacker is also shot and winds up dead in the hospital.

Though a link between the murder and the attack on Amy is suspected, there
seems to be no link other than her mild acquaintance with the dead man.
Jean-Michel is worried too, that Amy might be charged with murder for owning
an undeclared gun.

The love story between Amy and Jean-Michel takes center stage in this fun
read. Talented author Gini Anding knows the city of Paris well as her
descriptions show, giving the reader the sense of being there.

A talented combination of romance and mystery, this story is a well told
tale that will please the pickiest romantic or mystery buff. Lots of action
as the story unfolds.

I'm pleased to recommend this book to any reader who likes a good read.
Enjoy. I did.
