The Lady in the Car with the Glasses and the Gun — Sebastien Japrisot

Voted one of the Sunday Times 100 Best Crime Novels

'Classic suspenseful noir from "the French Graham Greene”' The Times

Dany Longo is blonde, beautiful -- and thoroughly unpredictable. After doing a favour for her boss, she finds herself behind the wheel of his exquisite Thunderbird on a sun-kissed Parisian morning. On impulse she decides to head south.

What started as an impromptu joy-ride rapidly takes a turn for the chilling when strangers all along the unfamiliar route swear they recognise Dany from the previous day. But that's impossible: she was at work, she was in Paris, she was miles away... wasn't she?

From the author of A Very Long Engagement comes a tangled, terrifying psychological thriller worthy of Georges Simenon, Paula Hawkins or Patricia Highsmith.
