"[A] fast-paced thriller... shelve alongside le Carré, Forsyth, and other masters of foreign intrigue."
--Kirkus "Chris Pavone's
The Paris Diversion is the best espionage novel I've read this year. Smart, sophisticated and suspenseful, this is Pavone's finest novel to date -- and that's saying something."
-- HARLAN COBEN, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Fool Me Once "I tore through
The Paris Diversion, completely caught up in the thrilling story of one remarkable day in Paris. With its twisting, high-stakes plot, all-too-human characters, and unrelenting tension, I couldn't read it fast enough! I absolutely loved it--highly recommended!"
-- SHARI LAPENA, New York Times bestselling author of The Couple Next Door "Thriller writing at its absolute best. With echoes of Graham Greene and John le Carré, Pavone's novel accomplishes that rare feat of being both a nonstop adventure ride and a smart, stylish and compelling meditation on family, courage, responsibilities, and the relationships we create, for good and bad, throughout our lives.
The Paris Diversion does far more than divert; it grips us from the very beginning and doesn't let go."
-- JEFFERY DEAVER, New York Times bestselling author of The Cutting Edge "As full of fast-paced twists and turns as a great car chase, you will race through Chris Pavone's new book. This is a thrilling story of international intrigue set in my favorite city in the word - Paris. I loved it!!"
-- INA GARTEN, Barefoot Contessa, New York Times bestselling author and TV Host
"Sleek, cunning and breakneck, Chris Pavone's
The Paris Diversion sweeps you into its frenetic rhythms from its first pages. With a sprawling cast of characters, with its scissoring plot twists, and especially with Kate--as rich and complicated a hero as you could hope for--it keeps you returning for more and more. A knockout."
-- MEGAN ABBOTT, author of Give Me Your Hand and You Will Know Me "Chris Pavone is a master craftsman. A natural storyteller. Whether we're being driven around Paris in a car trunk or walking through the Luxembourg Gardens, his descriptions leap off the page.
The Paris Diversion is a terrific read."
- JASON MATTHEWS, New York Times bestselling author of the Red Sparrow trilogy "An ingenious, engrossing sequel to an ingenious, engrossing original. If only all follow-ups were this good."
-- JOHN CONNOLLY, New York Times bestselling author of the Charlie Parker thriller series "My head is still swimming after reading
The Paris Diversion. Chris Pavone has constructed the perfect page-turner for our fraught times, a white-knuckle ride of international proportions where nothing is ever what it seems."
--OLEN STEINHAUER, New York Times bestselling author of The Middle Man and All the Old Knives "Since he exploded onto the scene with
The Expats, Chris Pavone has quickly become one of the elite must-read can't-miss thriller writers working today. Grab
The Paris Diversion and hold on for the ride."
