About this listen

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.

Nothing New Here

I am a big fan of espionage novels. This one had all of the things you'd expect and nothing you don't - which is part of the problem. It competently recycles all the standard spy novel tropes without adding anything new. There is a lot of promise in the premise of the story, but ultimately it is flat and two-dimensional. At times there were some lazy writing mechanics to keep the story moving forward without supporting rationale and some particularly unrealistic depictions of spycraft. If you enjoy sophisticated spy novels from the likes of John le Carré, Ken Follett or Kate Quinn, then you will likely find this story rather basic. Having said all of that, the narration was well done and I did stick with the story until the end.
