The Paris Diversion (Kate Moore, #2)

by Chris Pavone

“What would you think of living in Luxembourg?”

While writing this book, my biggest struggle was how to address the events of THE EXPATS, my first novel, which features some of these same characters at an earlier point in their lives. I eventually decided to include only what’s absolutely necessary for this story, treating PARIS as if the book of EXPATS doesn’t exist but its action does, in the backstory of these characters’ lives, just like the characters’ back stories in any novels. Like this passage.
