At first, this story reminded me of a modernized version of Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot books, but boy, was I wrong. As much as you try and try to guess the answer the the original mystery, you’ll never guess it. Not because it’s all that hard but because there are multiple characters with many many secrets. 

I devoured this novel. I enjoy a good mystery novel and a whodunnit at that but between the way it’s written and the complexities of all of the characters, ‘The Paris Apartment’ is hard to put down. Surprisingly, my least favorite character was the main character Jess, but like I said this story is filled to the brim with fleshed-out and interesting characters. 

As for the mystery itself, it just gets bigger and bigger and deeper and deeper. Originally it is a search for a missing brother but it becomes so much more as more secrets are brought into the light.
