Looking for something to creep you out and make your skin crawl? The Bones of Paris will do just that. This is a mystery novel with a private detective named Harris Stuyvesant as the main character. It is Paris in 1929 and the culture is wild, free, and bohemian. It is in this setting that Stuyvesant is asked to take on a case of a missing American girl named Pip. Stuyvesant is an interesting character who is somewhat troubled, flawed, and therefore intriguing, but to me the missing Pip seems somewhat unlikeable. As readers we are introduced to many unique characters and unique settings. This plus the missing case of Pip makes for a suitable read for fans of history and the macabre, but ultimately, although suitable, I am not sure it is memorable. Read it with this understanding and you'll be fine.
