“In The Paris Affair, Maureen Marshall has created an evocative, intriguing story set in the historical shadow of the iconic Eiffel tower. In a world of aristocrats, dancers and the demi-monde, where reputation is everything and love is just another commodity to be bought and sold, Marshall tells the story of a young man's determination to build his own destiny, and in doing so protect the curious family of outcasts and misfits who gather around him.”—Emily Hourican, author of The Glorious Guinness Girls
"Filled with mystery and danger, The Paris Affair is a seductive journey through the glamour and shadows of nineteenth-century Paris." —Kelly Bowen, author of The Paris Apartment
"Bold, intricate, and as deftly constructed as the contested tower at the center of its plot, The Paris Affair is a marvel. With a keen eye for both historical detail and the frailties of the human heart, Marshall builds the perfect balance of mystery and love story around a young man's quest to secure a future, delving into questions of longing, loss, and what it means to live one's truth; of what truly makes a family—and a home."—Rose Sutherland, author of A Sweet Sting of Salt
"Marshall’s effervescent debut. [She] laces the novel’s first half with delightful characterizations and rich historical detail, then ratchets up the pace in the second, delivering a barrage of well-earned reveals. Francophiles, take note: this steamy slice of romantic suspense is très bien."—Publishers Weekly
