Absolutely stunning (I rarely say that), original (also rare) and grabs your gut and your mind and your emotions. Superlatives run out. I REALLY look forward to more books by L. Rosen and featuring that rare sleuth, Poincarre is an Interpol investigator who even excels Holmes, as a detective. Could not put it down...but fell asleep over it at 2 am. The complexity of plot, the international scope of the crimes and of the criminals fascinate and kept me baffled and turning pages. Six stars...oops, not possible...but earned.
