"Cara Black's Huguette is a propulsive dive into the demi-monde of postwar France, full of moral ambiguity and striking characters."
--Sasha Vasilyuk, author of Your Presence Is Mandatory

"A fast-paced, gritty thriller . . . A wonderful novel about a natural survivor whose actions often fall outside the law, but who is so likeable that you cannot help but root for her . . . Highly recommended."

--Library Journal, Starred Review

"Huguette's journey is extraordinary, and her courage and resourcefulness make for an engaging read. Black's fans may clamor for more of this extraordinary character."
--Booklist

Praise for Cara Black

"Black . . . excels at setting vivid scenes, creating lively characters and maintaining pulse-elevating suspense."
--The Wall Street Journal
