Book excerpt: The ninth Aimée Leduc investigation set in Paris A Haitian woman arrives at the office of Leduc Detective proclaiming that she is Aimée Leduc’s sister, her father’s illegitimate daughter. Though her partner, René, is wary of this stranger, Aimée is thrilled; she has always wanted a sister. But before Aimée can get to know her, Mireille disappears. Worried about her sister and eager to learn if what she says is true, Aimée follows the only clue she has: a note Mireille left behind. On the note is the address to a university research center in the Latin Quarter; in the building, Aimée finds a corpse without an ear. This compelling mystery weaves together Haitian politics, history, and culture as Aimée tries to piece together what happened and searches for the sister she never knew she had.
