The Paris Diversion: A Novel

â€œThe most clever plot twist of the year.â€â€”Washington Post

â€œI nominate Kate Moore, the protagonist of Chris Pavoneâ€™s sizzling new thrillerÂ The Paris Diversion,Â for patron saint of working wives and mothers everywhere.â€â€”Marilyn Stasio,Â The New York Times Book Review

â€œThe Paris DiversionÂ is the best espionage novel Iâ€™ve read this year. Smart, sophisticated and suspenseful, this is Pavoneâ€™s finest novel to dateâ€”and thatâ€™s saying something.â€â€”Harlan Coben, #1Â New York TimesÂ bestselling author ofÂ Fool Me Once

â€œDeliciously twisty . . . This involving work has been skillfully engineered for maximum reader enjoyment.â€â€”The Wall Street Journal

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Expats. Kate Moore is back in a pulse-pounding thriller to discover that a massive terror attack across Paris is not what it seemsâ€”and that it involves her family

American expat Kate Moore drops her kids at the international school, makes her rounds of chores, and meets her husband Dexter at their regular cafÃ©: a leisurely start to a normal day, St-Germain-des-PrÃ©s.

Across the Seine, tech CEO Hunter Forsyth stands on his balcony, wondering why his police escort just departed, and frustrated that his cell service has cut out; Hunter has important calls to make, not all of them technically legal.

And on the nearby rue de Rivoli, Mahmoud Khalid climbs out of an electricianâ€™s van and elbows his way into the crowded courtyard of the worldâ€™s largest museum. He sets down his metal briefcase, and removes his windbreaker.

Thatâ€™s when people start to scream.

Everyone has big plans for the day. Dexter is going to make a small fortune, finally digging himself out of a deep financial hole, via an extremely risky investment. Hunter is going to make a huge fortune, with a major corporate acquisition that will send his companyâ€™s stock soaring. Kate has less ambitious plans: preparations for tonightâ€™s dinner partyâ€”one of those homemaker obligations she still hasnâ€™t embraced, even after a half-decade of this lifeâ€”and an uneventful workday at the Paris Substation, the clandestine cadre of operatives that sheâ€™s been running, not entirely successfully, increasingly convinced that every day could be the last of her career. But every day is also a fresh chance to prove her own relevance, never more so than during todayâ€™s momentous events.

And Mahmoud? He is planning to die today. And he wonâ€™t be the only one.
