Great new detective find

I’ve read many detective stories and rank Mark Pryor’s Hugo Marston’s at the highest level. An American embassy official who becomes involved in French /Parisian crimes & works closely with police in solving fascinating & complex cases while letting you know a lot about the culture, food & characters! Great stuff. Cleverly written, funny & very entertaining. You’ll stay up late reading this whole series. They’re great!
