“With rich, complex characters, evocative prose, and a totally immersive setting, The Paris Files is a terrific read. Equal parts puzzle-box mystery and smart commentary on modern dating and the roles we allow women to play, Eva Jurczyk’s novel made me gasp, laugh—and start looking up flights to Charles de Gaulle.”

“Staggeringly good. Eva Jurczyk is a dazzling talent, and her dark and beguiling Paris is unforgettable.”
—Rosie Walsh, New York Times bestselling author of The Love of My Life

“Set in a richly drawn Paris, this deftly plotted, character-driven thriller kept me guessing from the first page to the last. Exploring a romantic dalliance that goes disastrously wrong, the novel unfolds through a series of interviews, each perspective making you not only question the one that came before, but yourself. A chilling sense of unease pervades every page and Jurczyk’s accomplished and intelligent prose only amplifies that paranoia as the book ratchets up the tension to a stunning conclusion. A must-read!”
—Sarah Pearse, New York Times bestselling author of The Sanatorium

It’s a character-driven thriller that takes us deep into the heart of Paris, with the city becoming a character of its own. . . We’re taken on a wild ride trying to work out if we can trust the narrator or not.”

—Caroline Kepnes, New York Times bestselling author of You

—Bea Setton, author of Berlin

“I loved The Paris Files. I was absolutely gripped from beginning to end, and loved being as clueless as the investigating police officers, and not knowing who to trust. I wholly believed in the characters, and Paris, and every chapter had me desperate for the next. A truly compulsive, and beautifully clever, book.”
—Ellie Levenson, author of Room 706
