Floats the Dark Shadow, my award-winning historical mystery, is set in Belle Époque Paris and features a young American artist, a French cop, assorted poets, courtesans, criminals, and a crazed serial killer. Bitter Draughts is book 2 in this Paris Trilogy. The same characters return to deal with murders that take place during the violent riots of the anti-Semitic Dreyfus Affair. Coming in 2024 is the final book of this Paris trilogy, A Harmony of Hells.
