  • Last Stop: Paris: The Sequel to Treasure of Saint-Lazare

    John Pearce

    eBook (Alesia Press LLC, Dec. 1, 2015)
    In a glittering salon in the most expensive quartier of Paris, Eddie's man surfaces, linked somehow to a shady French banker, an American TV goldbug, and a pretentious Texas congressman running for president. When the goldbug dies a gruesome death, Eddie must come to a decision: does he or doesn't he follow the case to the end? The wrong choice could be the last one he ever makes. He got them all...All but one Now the leader of the gang is in his sights -- but at terrible risk to Aurélie, the love of his life. The thrilling sequel to TREASURE OF SAINT-LAZARE. You might think Eddie Grant has done everything he can but it wouldn't be true, at least not yet. The half-American, half-French golden boy of Paris cleaned up most of the gang that murdered his father, his wife, and his young son. The evil genius behind the plot remains out of reach, invisible, as though he never existed, but Eddie's thirst for revenge remains as keen as ever. He won't settle for mere justice. Does vengeance outweigh the call of his growing romance with the beautiful Aurélie? She's clear about it -- at her urging, he jumps back into the fray, calling for help from his friend Jeremy Bentham, a retired two-star general he served under as company commander during the First Gulf War. The bewitching Jen, who he thought was far in the past, plays a key role. In his public life, Eddie is heir to a great American industrial fortune and an investing genius who has multiplied the wealth his father left behind -- and Aurélie's handsome companion at the society events and Sorbonne soirées she loves but he would rather avoid. In the background, he's a CIA "unofficial," who volunteers to be the Paris eyes and ears for his CIA and Desert Storm friend Icky Crane. Kirkus Reviews said Last Stop: Paris is "A full-throttle adventure through modern Europe and the Mediterranean that's part thriller, part mystery, and all rollicking ride." Shelf Unbound Magazine selected it as one of the six best indie books of the year.

    Audible Audiobook (Alesia Press LLC, Dec. 4, 2015)
    When readers last saw Eddie Grant in Treasure of Saint-Lazare, he was hot on the trail of Nazi war loot in the company of his on-again, off-again lover, Jen. As readers and listeners return to Eddie's shadowy world of undercover deals and thugs in the employ of crime bosses, they find a quieter, more mature Eddie, now married to Aurélie, a scholar of some note, and living in pleasant domestic bliss. Onto this romantic scene come several of Eddie's friends, who alert him to suspicious activity within his social circle, involving a man with criminal intentions and an interest in gold. Shortly afterward, a mysterious murder implicates another character from Eddie's past. As he looks into the matter, Aurélie soon finds herself in danger; at the same time, Jen reappears in Eddie's life, and he's simultaneously drawn to her and eager to avoid falling into bed with her again. Soon, he and his comrades must track down another ring of criminals and protect themselves from fatal retribution.
