People often ask me, "How did Mrs. Duchesney become a famous Paris detective?" I tell them it should have been easy to predict that Francine Robinsworth Duchesney would find success doing something unexpected of a young woman from a small town in the American Midwest. For you see, she had never been what others in that part of the world might call "normal." When I came to Paris in search of Mrs. Duchesney, a person described to me as the legendary Paris Sleuth Extraordinaire, I did not imagine her to be the unassuming little woman seated alone on a bench in Parc Montsouris.

People often ask me, “How did Louie Bertrand become a famous Paris sleuth?” For our first interview, Louie Bertrand agreed to meet me at a cafe at one o'clock in the afternoon for le petit dejeuner. This should have been my first clue, for it shouted this artist turned sleuth was a night bloomer. From my interviews, I would learn Louie Bertrand and his sleuthing partner, Mrs. Duchesney, were as different as...well, as different as Paris in the daytime and Paris at night.

Caveau des Trésors, where the famous and the infamous mingle freely, has been Louie Bertrand’s favorite hideaway for 30 years. So, when the famous sleuth’s table remains empty for too many nights in a row, the club’s owner suspects foul play and contacts Louie’s partner Mrs. Duchesney to begin a private investigation. When Mrs. Duchesney’s cousin Rudy also goes missing, she must enlist the help of Chief Homicide Detective Monsieur Bruno Lacosta, recruit a reporter by the name of Simon Pennington, and lastly, make peace with the one woman in Paris she does not trust.
