古い骨 (ミステリアス・プレス文庫)

The French backdrop adds such charm and complexity—I'm curious what drew the author to this location and how it influenced the story.

I loved the characters, but the middle chapters felt a bit slow. Do others think that was intentional to build atmosphere?

The blend of cultural history and crime was so unique. I'm wondering what inspired that particular combination and how it shaped the plot.
