Waiting For Monsieur Bellivier by Britta Röstlund, Alice Menzies

4.0

Helena Folasadu is approached by a man while she is working on some freelance journalism in a cafe. "Are you waiting for Monsieur Bellivier?" Bored, and on impulse, she says yes.

Mancebo, a greengrocer, is taken aback by a woman who visits his store. Would you spy on my husband for me? she asks, and he says he will.

Helena and Mancebo tell their stories of their adventures into worlds where secrets are the norm, and in the process, they learn that they are not the only ones who are keeping silent on things in their lives.

A fun romp set in Paris that kept me curious about what would happen next all through the story.
