Publisher's summary

A FRENCH POLICEWOMAN BATTLES MODERN TERRORISTS WHO PLAN TO DESTROY PARIS!
***
"I was on the edge of my seat reading this book! First, just the thought that a bomb of this magnitude could be sitting in the store room for decades was petrifying. Second, Paris is my favorite city so the thought of it being destroyed literally made me hold my breath throughout the book." *** "Starts off fast paced and never slows down. Good mix of history, science and Paris and never bogs down."
***
THE FLORIDA WEEKLY RAVES: “A LAWRENCE DE MARIA TITLE GIVES YOU MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK THAN JUST ABOUT ANYTHING IN THE BOOK MARKETPLACE TODAY.” AND THE WASHINGTON INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF BOOKS SAYS: “DE MARIA IS A MASTER OF THRILLER DIALOGUE.” *** AN AMERICAN JOURNALIST, AN ITALIAN PRIEST AND A FRENCH POLICEWOMAN BATTLE TO SAVE THEIR BELOVED PARIS. *** With the war lost, Hitler, a failed and bitter artist, wants to destroy the Louvre, and Paris along with it. But his plan goes awry. The Fuhrer's final "vengeance weapon", a crude atomic device his scientists created in secrecy, lies forgotten in a dusty museum storeroom for more than 70 years. Then, a curator with ties to ISIS discovers it. The Caliphate, reeling from recent battlefield defeats, sends two of its experts to detonate the bomb. ALAS, PARIS is an action-packed tale of fanatics, separated by generations but united by hate, who want to obliterate the City of Light!
