Her new novel, Murder at the Lanterne Rouge, is the 12th book in the Aimee Leduc Series.
Here Black shares her choice for one of the co-stars of an adaptation of the book:
I'm not sure who I'd like to play Aimée Leduc because there are so many stickthin, big-eyed, androgynous French actresses it would be hard to chose. But I definitely see the late, great actor Philippe Noiret, when I write the character of Morbier, Aimée's godfather and Commissaire. Basset hound eyes and grease stains on his tie and that sardonic grin. If I put him at a cafe table with Aimée they start talking and do all the work.Learn more about the book and author at Cara Black's website.
