Aimee Leduc is all dressed up in her new Chinese silk
jacket, supposedly an "exclusive," for dinner with a
difficult client at an elegant restaurant in the Bastille
district. She is chagrined to see that the woman seated at
the very next table is wearing an identical jacket. When
the woman leaves her cell phone on the table, Aimee
follows her to return it and is attacked in the shadowy
Passage Boule Blanche. When she regains consciousness,
Aimee finds that she is blind. Nevertheless, she is told
she is lucky; the woman she was following was found in the
next passage, murdered.
Aimee is determined to identify her attacker. Was he
actually a serial killer targeting showy blondes as the
police insist? Was he really after the other woman? Or was
Aimee his intended victim?
