When she becomes a murder suspect, a New Orleans beauty and lingerie tycoon must share her most deeply buried secrets with a disturbingly handsome district attorney in order to clear her name.

Like the city of New Orleans itself, Claire Laurent is a vibrant beauty laced with mystery. As the founder of French Silk, a fabulous lingerie company, she has fought hard to achieve worldwide success. Then a TV evangelist attacks French Silk's erotic sleepwear as sinful. And when he is killed, Claire becomes the prime suspect.

District Attorney Robert Cassidy knows Claire is damning herself with lie after lie about the murder, even as he feels her drawing him into her world and her very soul. But neither Cassidy nor her protests of innocence can save Claire unless she reveals a shocking truth -- one she has sworn to take to the grave . . .

I thoroughly enjoyed reading French Silk!
The characters were perfectly developed and the storyline was well constructed.

As a local New Orleans resident, born and raised here, I can attest to the wonderful detail of the food, architecture, courtyards, hotels and the flavor of New Orleans’ design as well as amazing accuracy of all locations.

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2016

FRENCH SILK is a typical Sandra Brown novel, a little too long and, at the mid-part of the story, a bit repetitive. The venue is New Orleans where televangelist, Jackson Wilde, publicly attacks Claire Laurent’s seasonal lingerie mail order catalog, French Silk, as tasteless and pornographic. Shortly thereafter Wilde is found in his hotel room with three appropriately placed bullet holes in his body. Handsome and dedicated Robert Cassidy, who gave up a lucrative legal defense practice to become assistant district attorney for New Orleans, is assigned the case. At the top of his suspect list is Wilde’s young second wife, Ariel, and his son, Josh, who have for some time concealed their affair. Later the prime suspect becomes Clair Laurent and Cassidy is forced to confront his professional integrity having fallen for this beautiful and talented suspect. When his D.A. boss finds out about Cassidy’s emotional entanglement, he threatens to take him off the case. Claire is extremely loyal to her French Silk Company employees and to her drop-dead gorgeous model and business partner, Yasmine. Claire also has a mother who lives in a fantasy world further complicating the plot and requiring much of Claire’s time. The local and married United States Congressman, Alister Petrie, who has a pattern of frequent affairs is also thrown into the mix and threatens to destroy the district attorney’s establishment if his affairs are exposed. Brown keeps the first and last parts of the novel moving at a fast pace. The story is a page turner. The novel is one of Brown’s better thrillers with just enough romance to keep it interesting. I give the story a 4 ½- star rating.

I do enjoy Sandra Brown books but this book was a disappointment. I did not like how the book ended. The true murderer was never confronted and I think it was a big mistake. It was like a whole chapter was missing.

I love this book and have read it several times. Loved staying on edge. District Attorney Robert Cassidy is investigating a murder and Claire is a main suspect but he’s falling for her. Loved Claire and her love she had for her Mom, she’s very protective. Even with all the lies, Cassidy and Claire can’t resist their chemistry. So many twists in this story, and love how we’re shocked on who the killer was. I highly recommend this book.

It is always hard to come up with a title. But, Sandra Brown's books have become an addiction. Thankfully she has written many more. Every book's story is different and the writing shifts to bring out the best. The descriptions of her characters, locations, landmarks, etc. are so vivid. New Orleans comes alive, as does the deep South of days gone by. The characters are fully formed and the articulation of events is at times poignant and claustrophobic (for me). As always, I hate to see the story end, but I am so thankful for a beginning, middle and end. I highly recommend immersing yourself in a Sandra Brown novel. You will be glad you did.

Many twists and hairpin turns to keep you guessing. Surprises, even a somewhat expected ones, keep popping up through reading. Enjoyed the characters, watching them struggle, as they overcome obstacles thrown at them by life. A bit too much sex for my plebeian taste, but not a romance! Well done.

In New Orleans wird der Fernsehprediger Jackson Wilde ermordet aufgefunden. Die Polizei mit Unterstützung des Staatsanwaltes Cassidy ermitteln. Ins Visier der Ermittler gerät dabei auch Claire Laurent, eine junge Frau, die einen Dessous-Versandhandel betreibt, gegen den Wilde gehetzt und als Pornographie beschimpft hatte. Staatsanwalt Cassidy fühlt sich von Claire stark angezogen und verstrickt sich immer mehr in seine Gefühle, obwohl Claire zu seinen Hauptverdächtigen gehört und sie immer wieder bei Lügen ertappt wird und immer nur das zugibt, was man ihr eindeutig beweisen kann. Der Täter bleibt bis zum Ende des Buches ein Geheimnis und erst dann erschließt sich alles für den Leser.

Dieses Buch hat mir sehr gut gefallen und ich schließe mich hier gerne der Mehrheit an. Ein richtig gelungenes Buch und ein großartiges Lesevergnügen.

　アメリカのアマゾンのカスタマーレビューでも高い評価を得ていたので読んだが、ストーリーよくできていて楽しめた。最後まで、おっ、という感じ。相手の男があなり切れ者でないのは残念だが。しかし、サンドラ・ブラウン描写もうまいし、英語わかりやすいし、ぐんぐんとひきつける内容なので、英語学習者にとってはありがたい存在。これは、珍しくブラウンにありがちな、これでもかという読んでいて恥ずかしくなる性描写もなく、まあ、エロティックだけど、すっきり目。それもよかった。
