The ninth volume of the famous adventures of Nicolas Le Floch. More than a million copies sold! France is at war in 1780 and having great difficulty financing its maritime operations against England. Nicolas Le Floch is called in to investigate the suspicious death of a high-ranking officer of the French Navy. It would appear to be a domestic accident but there are some very strange clues in the victim's room that would suggest something was stolen. Who can explain why precious Chinese vases are disappearing? Why are the King, Sartine and Necker all so interested in this case? From Versailles to Portcherons, from filthy dungeons to luxurious new private hotels of Paris, the commissioner and his friends, old and new, commence a hunt for a dangerous, elusive criminal that will lead them down many twisting and perilous paths. Diplomat, specialist of 18th-century history, Jean-François Parot takes us to the heart of Paris and the intrigues of the court during the reigns of Louis XV and Louis XVI.
