About this listen

Heroic bookseller Laurent Letellier comes across an abandoned handbag on a Parisian street. There's nothing in the bag to indicate who it belongs to, although there's all sorts of other things in it. Laurent feels a strong impulse to find the owner and tries to puzzle together who she might be from the contents of the bag. Especially a red notebook with her jottings, which really makes him want to meet her. Without even a name to go on, and only a few of her possessions to help him, how is he to find one woman in a city of millions?

An Amazing Little Book

The plot is very straightforward but it’s intriguing. I anticipated a happy ending but finding out how they got there was entertaining.
There was a strong sense of place, I could really feel I was in Paris. But I did not like the narrator adopting a French accent for dialogue. As it was a translation into English it would have been fine for the characters to have English accents! That jarred for me, and was the reason for 4 stars rather than 5 on performance.

Simple but effective
