Leathan Wilkey has been hired to babysit Clementina, a seventeen-year-old whose rich daddy is going through a messy divorce and is over-compensating.
Leathan soon tires of her spending habits, her selfie obsession, and her social media preoccupation as his ward drags him from shop to boutique to jeweler, approaching each with the self-possession that comes from a lifetime of getting her own way and never once having to worry about money.
But when Clementina snaps her fingers and her boyfriend doesn't come running, something is up. He doesn't appear because he’s been murdered.
When Leathan investigates, he finds that the boyfriend has no background and met Clementina through a connection made by daddy’s business partner.
Daddy's business partner who has been slowly and progressively putting daddy in a vice, grabbing more of the business, and who is now menacing Clementina directly to manipulate daddy.

I just read a really good book, y'all — CLEMENTINA by Simon Cann. Let me tell you a little about this crime suspense/thriller, Book #1 in the Leathan Wilkey series.I initially read Chapter One of CLEMENTINA on Author Simon Cann's website. I was hooked from the beginning. I couldn't wait to finish reading CLEMENTINA!
This is definitely not my usual genre — cozy mystery. CLEMENTINA is a Crime Thriller, with some intense passages. The book is not completely dark and suspenseful, however.
Due to some undercover work in London that went bad, Leathan Wilkey left the UK for Paris. His new job is "babysitting" his new ward Clementina, which is a lot harder than it sounds since she is a spoiled, willful 17-year-old.
Leathan, the narrator, displays a rather snarky sense of humor at times, which added a lot to my appreciation of CLEMENTINA. As an example:
"To the right, a figure appeared.
Female. Slim. Five eight. Long blond hair, styled with a just-got-out-of-bed look, which may have been due to her just getting out of bed."
Leathan is remarkably patient with Clementina, even though she can behave like a little snot. Leathan keeps his head, whether he's dealing with Clementina's demands or her boyfriend's dead body. He saves the day, by outwitting the bad guys with his quick thinking and fast talking.
There are two more books planned for the Leathan Wilkey series. They are also set in Paris. I can't wait to read them!
I recommend CLEMENTINA to all fans of crime thrillers and suspense. I think it will particularly appeal to fans of Frederick Forsyth and Simon Cann's other series.
I really enjoyed CLEMENTINA by Simon Cann, and award it Five Stars!
Note: I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of CLEMENTINA. All opinions shared are 100% my own.

Clementina Leathan Wilkey Book 1 edition by Simon Cann Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
Excellent book. Fascinating plot with great characters.
Leathan Wilkey didn't know what he was letting himself in for when he signed up to 'babysit' Clementina! This needs to be read to discover just what he has taken on.
I enjoyed this very much and would certainly recommend it.
I really enjoyed this book. The characters were believable, and the plot interesting. Great summer read!
Absolutely loved this book. The plot was intriguing and the writing was witty and intense. (It does, however, need a little better editing job in 3 or 5 places.) The characters were believable and the good "guys" were mostly likable. It's not a particularly long book, but I didn't end up feeling like the author had done a "rush to print", leaving important stuff out in the process. I won't go into a play-by-play of the story line. You read that when you decided to buy the book or not. I will say I enjoyed it tremendously and will be looking for more by Cann.
I received this book at no charge for from . I want to thank the author for generously providing this novel at no cost.
By the end of the book I did not feel like I knew the main detective character, I knew about him but I had not developed a rapport with him, thus I am not inclined to read another book in the series. While the author was very truthful and precise in the descriptions of Paris, there was too much architecture related description for my liking, these did not bring anything to the story but slowed it down. The secondary characters had very little depth but the plot was good I thought.
A spoiled daughter with a wealthy father and ambitious employees. Interesting solutions and thinking on the hired overseer. Who to trust and how all were connected and the twist in solving the mystery.
