MYSTERIES IN PARIS

Rendez-vous At Hell's Passage

Claude Izner

Paris, at the end of the 19th Century. Victor Legris is in his 30's and works as a bookseller. He regularly finds himself confronted with mysteries and that's good luck because he loves acting as a detective.

In the Autumn of 1895, two members of a colourful company die of asphyxiation. A third thief dies in a catastrophe at the Montparnasse train station. And this is onyl the beginning...
Once again, Victor Legris set off on his own to investigate a case rich in unexpected events.

Claude Izner is the pen name of two sisters, Liliane Korb and Laurence Lefèvre, who are both second-hand booksellers along the Seine.
