          October 15, 2016

          The second BookShots story featuring NYPD Det. Luc Moncrief (French Kiss) finds the wealthy Frenchman and his partner Katherine Burke investigating potential art forgeries and then a wealthy socialite's murder as the festivities approach. They chase the perpetrators from Park Avenue to the Bronx to the Catskills, dodging bullets all the way. The duo wrap up the case and earn a few days off, but they're soon jetting off to Paris when they learn that Moncrief's father has died. While not overly sad about his distant father's death, Moncrief is suspicious about the cause. As that mystery is solved and the will is read, he and Burke enjoy their holiday in Paris. VERDICT Best-selling author Patterson (15th Affair) delivers a short, fast-paced mystery with a compelling detecting duo that will attract reluctant and time-crunched readers.
