Praise for Three Hours in Paris A National Bestseller A Wall Street Journal Best Mystery of the Year A Washington Post Best Thriller and Mystery Book of the Year A Seattle Times Best Crime Novel of the Year "Heart-racing . . . Chances that you'll be able to put Black's thriller down once you've picked it up? . . . Slim to none."
–The Washington Post "Beyond Black's encyclopedic knowledge of Paris, her deft interweaving of WWII history and spycraft with a relatable female protagonist puts
Three Hours in Paris on par with other top thrillers about botched missions followed by harrowing escapes."
–Paula Woods, Los Angeles Times "Black . . . excels at setting vivid scenes, creating lively characters and maintaining pulse-elevating suspense.
Three Hours in Paris, with its timetable structure and its hunt for a covert operative, recalls such comparable works as Frederick Forsyth's
The Day of the Jackal and Ken Follett's
Eye of the Needle."
–The Wall Street Journal "Heart-stopping."
–The Seattle Times
