When the phone call interrupted Ana Reisner’s visit to the Opera, she was amazed that her boss assigned her to a case involving attempted murder and theft. Even though Ana is an police officer with Interpol, her job is cataloging catalog art treasures not solving crimes. When she protested the assignment, her boss said she was specifically requested by the President of France. After meeting the victim, Ana accepted the job and dropped her protests. While searching for the for the missing object, she bumps into Robert Fraser, a convicted art thief. Soon, the couple are running for their lives. While gathering clues, they learn the object is tied to the Black Madonna cult and if the object falls into the wrong hands, France may be destroyed. Now can Ana find the object and save France, or will she die trying?
I loved the way Cindy filled this story with ties to the characters in the first book, but not only did she use them, they acted the same as the characters in the first book. I liked that Cindy also let a little bit of her sense of humor sneak in now and again. While the book wasn’t terribly steamy, it was romantic in all the right places. Definitely a great book and one worth reading again.
