Description
A gruesome discovery on the outskirts of Paris sets off a chain reaction of bizarre and violent events. A nurse who has murdered several patients escapes from prison, while two men are found with their throats cut in Normandy. As Commissaire Adamsberg delves into the cases, he must confront his enemies past and present. The investigation leads him to cross paths with Ariane Lagarde, a pathologist with whom he has a long-standing feud, and Louis Veyrenc, a new recruit who is tasked with protecting Adamsberg's ex-girlfriend. As the different strands of the story begin to intertwine, events hurtle towards a gripping climax. Shortlisted for the Duncan Lawrie International Dagger, this mystery novel weaves together a complex web of crime and deception that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
