From the #1 bestselling French author and four-time winner of the
Crime Writers' Association's International Dagger Award "French
crime queen's new mystery-her best yet."-The Sunday Times ("Must
Reads") "Adamsberg is a terrific creation and his team of misfits a
joy to watch in action."-Peter Robinson, New York Times bestselling
author of the Inspector Banks series A woman is found murdered in
her bathtub, and the murder has been made to look like a suicide.
But a strange symbol found at the crime scene leads the local
police to call Commissaire Adamsberg and his team. When the symbol
is found near the body of a second disguised suicide, a pattern
begins to emerge: both victims were part of a disastrous expedition
to Iceland over ten years ago where a group of tourists found
themselves trapped on a deserted island for two weeks, surrounded
by a thick, impenetrable fog rumored to be summoned by an ancient
local demon. Two of them didn't make it back alive. But how are the
deaths linked to the secretive Association for the Study of the
Writings of Maximilien Robespierre? And what does the mysterious
symbol signify?
