Salamander (The St-Cyr and Kohler Mysteries) Kindle Edition
In a packed movie theater, an usher notices two women enter and leave just before the show begins. Moments later, the theater goes up in flames, and 183 people perish in the stampede to escape. By the time investigators Jean-Louis St-Cyr and Hermann Kohler arrive from Paris, the charred bodies are frozen solid. It is two days before Christmas, 1942, and the people of Lyon are terrified. As the detectives try to unravel what happened in that packed movie house, the arsonists plan their next attack. Saving Lyon from fire will force St-Cyr and Kohler to confront the worst of human nature, in a city lorded over by one of the most infamous Nazis of the Second World War.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
So much of the book could be considered pornographic, and in my mind was totally gratuitous and adds absolutely nothing to the story but for the prurient. Why Janes wasted so much time on this and such ridiculous narrative as to completely describe the lace underwear that was worn by ladies during 'la belle epoch'. The problem with this story is that there is no cohesion to what is going on, at times we are given flashbacks but in such a way as it's hard to tell until a couple of paragraphs later.
So many times during the book, it's hard to tell who is talking, or even if they are talking. People muse out-loud but you can't tell if it's really them speaking to themselves or some one else. This is so troubling that it begins to confuse the story and to who knows or has done what. Instead of being convoluted it just spins off into different tangents.
Very poor effort.
