A shade darker than my favorite Diane Johnson books (the European novels:
Le Divorce,
Le Mariage,
L'Affaire),
this is still an excellent, engaging, and exotic read. Often described as a modern day cross between Jane Austen and Henry James, Johnson has veered outside the expatriate community of Paris, for a similar, but more sinister, circle in Morocco. A perfect beach book for those who shun fluffy chic lit.
