La Malédiction du lys

The body of a real estate developer and mayoral candidate is discovered in Bordeaux, murdered according to a ritual once used on runaway slaves. Captain Clémence Lacoste, a street-smart local, is paired with Lieutenant Antoine Rosy, a polished Parisian more at home behind a desk. This unlikely duo must navigate their differences to halt a serial killer. Their investigation pulls back the elegant facade of Bordeaux's high society, exposing buried lineages connected to the slave trade. As they delve deeper, the case becomes a mirror, forcing both detectives to confront shadows not only in the city's history but within their own origins and family pasts.
