Reviews

Great as a standalone book, or even better as part two of a grander whole, this is the rare sequel that easily outperforms its predecessor in just about any way you can name, and it comes with a highly enthusiastic recommendation.  <em>- Chicago Center for Literature and Photography</em> <br /><br /> Collin Kelley ditches the guidebooks and takes us on a thrill ride tour through the seedy underside of Paris. Fraud, squalor, prostitution, the illegal drug trade and characters that crackle with life - it's all here. <em>Remain in Light</em> is a first class suspense novel.  <em>- Grant Jerkins, author of A Very Simple Crime and At The End of the Road</em>
