This is the second novel I’ve read by this author and historian, who sets his grim mysteries in Paris during the Nazi Occupation. A French detective of the Surete and a German from the Gestapo form an unlikely team and an unlikely friendship in this series of fascinating books featuring Jean-Louis St-Cyr and Hermann Kohler. In this one, a serial killer seems to be targeting schoolgirls. St-Cyr and Kohler follow the trail from wealthy French collaborators to brothels, all the while ignoring the instructions from their superiors regarding who should be charged with the crimes. This book is not for the faint hearted.
