Paris Vendetta: a novel
by Steve Berry
Cotton Malone was a Justice Department operative. Now he runs an antiquarian bookstore in Copenhagen. A late night visitor to his newly rebuilt bookstore has it damaged again. Cotton and a younger Justice Department operative are now on the run. Danish billionaire, Henrik Thorvalsen, has discovered who ordered the death of his only son. The British aristocrat behind the murder is now involved in a plan to destabilize the world economy. Cotton was there when Henrik's son was killed and he killed the murderer. With Henrik's help Cotton is able to stop the destruction of the Eiffel Tower. But now both sides are in the hunt for a treasure hidden by Napoleon. Are the clues to the treasure hidden on Saint Helena? Or are they hidden in a book in the Napoleon exhibit at Les Invalides? The final battle between the two forces takes place in another French treasure just outside Paris. Will Cotton and Henrik both survive?
