The fourth Delphine Rougier investigation.
In France’s spectacular and historic Ariège department, terror still lurks amongst its beauty. Where a shocking secret concerning young French citizens from Réunion, its distant colony, ostensibly sent to help re-populate that and other parts of France, waits to be uncovered.
Little did those innocent victims realise their intended fate. Only years later, on Monday 9th August 2010, after one of them, Maurice Doucet, now aged forty-one, employed by a boulangerie in La Chapelle-de-la-Sarthe to deliver early morning baguettes to its customers, is deliberately killed while cycling through a deliberately treacherous oil spillage, other wickedness comes to light.
Will newly-promoted Delphine Rougier and fellow Lieutenant Alonso Diaz, navigating his way through a tricky relationship with his fiancée, together with their boss Colonel Serge Valon with whom she’d enjoyed a more than close friendship, uncover this toxic nest of vipers? Or will more personal matters take their toll?
Seismic tremors from Delphine’s dogged, often single-handed investigations trigger certain events to change her life forever. Can she, Diaz and their boss survive? And will justice ever be done for all those who suffered harm?
Read and be chilled…
