Three-times winner of the CWA International Dagger for Crime
Fiction Commissaire Adamsberg has left Paris for a police
conference in London, accompanied by anglophile Commandant Danglard
and Estalere, a young sergeant. The city offers a welcome change of
scenery until a gruesome discovery is made - just outside the gates
of Highgate Cemetery a pile of shoes, all containing severed feet,
is found. Returning to Paris, the three men are then confronted
with the violent killing and dismemberment of a wealthy, elderly
man. Both the dead man's son and gardener have motives for murder,
but soon another candidate for the killing emerges. As Adamsberg
investigates the links between these two unsettling crimes, he puts
himself at terrible risk.
