Textul de pe ultima copertă
The storied Hotel Chevalier on Paris’s ritzy Right Bank hosts celebrities, dignitaries, and—for one night—Lana Gibson, an American woman who’s escaped the monotony of her staid married life for a cultural jaunt to the City of Light. As long as she takes her meds, she promises herself, her heightened curiosity and manic elation will stay under control.
But when that curiosity leads her to the hotel’s private elevator, which serves only the ultra-elite penthouse Suite Imperial, she spies much more than plush carpets and gilt chandeliers: she sees a young woman in danger. Lana alerts the police, plunging herself into a firestorm of intrigue and becoming a target.
Alone in the city, not knowing who has her best interests at heart, Lana will need to use every ounce of strength and guile as she races to discover the relationship between the truth and what she saw.

Recenzii
“Writer and director Stembridge creates an indefatigable protagonist, emboldened and energized by her mania, in a chase through the vividly portrayed City of Lights. A thoroughly entertaining mix of suspense and setting.” — Booklist
“A fast-paced romp through the streets of Paris, with menace lurking in surprising quarters, a memorable cast of lively characters, and some terrific twists.” — Chris Pavone, New York Times bestselling author of THE EXPATS
“What She Saw is a smart, taut, modern thriller, filled with energy and suspense. I felt like I was right next to Lana, navigating the streets of Paris at all hours, trying to anticipate the next, unpredictable move.” — Alafair Burke, New York Times bestselling author of THE EX
“This deliciously sharp thriller places us firmly in Hitchcock territory; a sophisticated city, a troubled protagonist, sex, scandal, politics and a cast of characters you just can’t trust, all delivered with a thoroughly modern sensibility. WHAT SHE SAW is original, stylish and intriguing.” — Sarah Pinborough, author of Behind Her Eyes
“Take a deep breath and plunge into Gerard Stembridge’s stylish thriller WHAT SHE SAW. A taut, high stakes cat-and-mouse game in Paris, with Lana, a bi-polar expat, caught in the eye of a scandal. It’s got it all: fashion, l’amour, and politics à la Française. Twists galore and I rooted for Lana all the way.” — Cara Black, author of the Aimée Leduc series
“A gripping modern noir, with a classic caper plot and a beguiling Parisian setting. WHAT SHE SAW is atmospheric and propulsive.” — Flynn Berry, author of Under the Harrow
“Gerard Stembridge had me by the lapels; he’s found an entirely new way to drop a civilian into the middle of a delectable and elaborate conspiracy. Even better, the civilian in this case is the resourceful, unreasonably-elated, and hard-to-anticipate Lana Turner. WHAT SHE SAW is a book for anyone who loves Paris, hates bullies, and sometimes misses her meds.” — David Shafer, author of Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
“Stembridge paints evil villains and a resourceful heroine with a fascinating supporting cast to hold the vivid plot together . . . This is a well done mystery by Stembridge! 4 stars.” — RT Book Reviews
