Laura Lippman
 to Toledo!
ABOUT THE BOOK AND AUTHOR:
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Highly acclaimed 
New York Times
 
bestseller Laura Lippman returns with an irresistible mystery featuring Muriel Blossom, a former private investigator and middle-aged widow whose vacation on a Parisian River cruise turns into a deadly international mystery…that only she can solve.
Mrs. Blossom is not the kind of woman to play the lottery. She is practical, a devoted grandmother, and has a knack for blending into the background, which was an asset during her days assisting private investigator Tess Monaghan. But when Mrs. Blossom finds a winning ticket in a parking lot, everything changes...including Mrs. Blossom. She is determined to see the world that sometimes feels as if it’s passing her by.
But when Mrs. Blossom booked her cruise through France on the MS 
Solitaire,
 she did not expect to meet Allan on her transatlantic flight. He is the first man who’s sparked something inside her since her beloved husband passed.
She also didn’t expect Allan to be found dead twenty-four hours later in Paris, a city he wasn’t supposed to be in.
Now, Mrs. Blossom doesn’t know who to trust on board the ship, especially when a new, mystifying man, Danny, keeps popping up around every corner, always present when things go awry. He claims that Allan was involved in the transport of a stolen, precious piece of art, and he’s convinced that Mrs. Blossom knows more than she lets on regarding both the artifact and Allan’s murder.
Mrs. Blossom’s questions only increase as the cruise sails down the Seine. Why does it feel like she is being followed? Who was Allan, and why was he killed? Most alarmingly, why do these mysterious men keep flirting with her?
What follows is a charming one-of-a-kind mystery from one of 
Time
 magazine’s “essential crime writers of the last 100 years.” The perfect combination of cozy and thrilling, this novel and the delightful Mrs. Blossom are sure to be unforgettable.

托萊多大教堂

明日可用

sculptor

西班牙中部的托萊多是一座建於古羅馬帝國時期的老城，老城區中心的托萊多大教堂是一座有近八百年歷史的老建築，大教堂高過周圍的建築，日出日落時很漂亮。

托萊多古城

歷史建築

Gipameru

被稱為&ldquo;El casco&rdquo;的老城區很美麗。從一個景點到另一個景點，您將在整個旅程中爬上爬下，做好充分的腿部鍛鍊準備。

聖馬丁橋

旅の径

位於托萊多古城西側的聖馬丁橋，橫跨塔霍河的一座中世紀橋樑，十三世紀開始建設、十四世紀後期建成。兩座哥特式風格的防衛塔屹立橋頭，一大拱+四小拱的五拱石橋與我國的趙州橋異曲同工。凝望石橋，斑駁的外表訴說著歷史的滄桑，橋頭的城徽昭示着不朽的輝煌，遠處的修道院綻放着挺拔的身影&hellip;

托萊多城堡

托萊多的阿爾卡薩爾城堡，位於古城最高處，居高臨下的城堡，歷史悠久又命運多舛。三世紀時，建成一座羅馬宮殿；十世紀時，穆斯林攻克托萊多后將這個古城制高點建為要塞；十一世紀時，基督教奪回托萊多並在此建設城堡；十六世紀卡洛斯一世統治時期，城堡改建王宮；之後的繼任者腓力二世遷都馬德里，城堡失去了原有的重要地位，先後作為監獄、兵營、作坊和陸軍學院。西班牙內戰期間，城堡又在戰火中嚴重損毀；戰後為褒獎守衛城堡的將士，佛朗哥下令按原樣重建了城堡、留存至今。現今的城堡，方正壯觀、巍峨依舊；城堡的底層，有着些許留作紀念的殘垣斷壁；城堡的主體，成為了軍事博物館和圖書館；城堡的頂層，360&deg;無死角將古城美景盡收眼底。

聖若望皇家修道院

MaryJoy Dela Cruz Gonzales

迴廊和教堂充滿了美麗的細節，非常值得一看。美妙的古老修道院。雖然距離托萊多市中心有點遠，但還是值得一去的。票價還算合理，成人只要3歐元。
