Once there, he becomes part of a dangerous intelligence plot, where no one's identity is certain — not even that of the alluring Carol Johnson. She claims to be a Sorbonne student, but might be a double agent working for the Russians — or perhaps the Americans. As Larry navigates this unfamiliar terrain, only one thing is certain: the food in Paris is good.
