Set in Trieves, France, during the winter of 1843, this novel tells
the story of Langlois, a dark and entrancing character. As a small
town remains buried under snow, a series of mysterious events
occurs: a girl disappears, a young man is attacked, and a pig is
maimed. The frightened villagers ask the police for help, and they
arrive in the village led by the enigmatic Langlois, a man who is
soon revealed as being capable of carrying out the most monstrous
and cruel acts--as well as the most compassionate. "Ambientada en
