Murder in Montparnasse (Phryne Fisher Series, Book #12) by Kerry Greenwood
Seven Australian soldiers, carousing in Paris in 1918, unknowingly witness a murder with devastating consequences. Ten years later, two are dead, under very suspicious circumstances.
Phryne (pronounced Fry-Knee, to rhyme with briny) Fisher's friends, Bert and Cec (sometimes cabbies and sometimes men for hire), appeal to her for help. They were part of this group of soldiers in 1918 and they fear for their lives and for those of the other three men. It's only as Phryne delves into the investigation that she, too, remembers being in Montparnasse on that very same, and fatal day.
While Phryne is occupied with memories of Montparnasse past and the race to outpace the murderer, she finds troubles of a different kind at home. Her lover, Lin Chung, is about to be married. And the effect this is having on her own unusually peaceful household is disastrous.
