Overview

She came to Paris chasing a dream. What she found was a murder and a version of herself she never knew existed. When Julia Marquez lands a prestigious research fellowship in Paris, she expects art, culture, and a fresh start. Instead, she's stuck in a shoebox apartment with no furniture, no money, and a neighbor dead before sunrise. Overnight, Julia is pulled into a whirlwind of suspicion, secrets, and a murder investigation led by the enigmatic Detective Sami Dahmane. The suspect? Julia. New in town, no alibi, and just inconvenient enough to be the perfect scapegoat. Between late shifts at a moody cocktail bar and the headache of Parisian red tape, Julia must also navigate the messier maze within herself: her fears, her ambitions, and the life she thought she wanted. As her fellowship teeters on the edge, she's drawn into a shadowy world of ambition, betrayal, and secrets baked into the glossy façade of Parisian life. Witty, immersive, and laced with suspense, Finding Julia is a story of murder, resilience, and unexpected reinvention in the most unpredictable city in the world.
