PARISIAN PARTNERS IN PERIL: The Honeymooners (eBook)

PARISIAN PARTNERS IN PERIL: The Honeymooners, an eBook of tantalizing adventure, about two newly wedded lovers who went to Paris.

After stopping for a nightcap at a charming cafe, John and Emily strolled arm in arm admiring the flickering gas lamps lining their street. As they passed an alleyway between two shuttered shops, raised voices made them pause. Peering into shadowy passage, they glimpsed two figures engaged in a hushed transaction, passing something between them wrapped in cloth. A sense of voyeurism held John and Emily back, yet curiosity overcame propriety as one man slipped the bundle into a satchel and pulled a wad of notes from within his jacket. "You drive a hard bargain, Guillaume, but this Vermeer is worth every sou. Marcel will be glad for this addition to his...private collection."

A creak behind made them freeze as heavy footsteps approached. Heart in throat, Emily grabbed John’s hand as shuffling footsteps passed their hiding place.

Be blessed!
