The crime stunned and paralyzed France since Louis had often ruled in place of his brother King Charles, who had gone mad. As panic seized Paris, an investigation began. In charge was the Provost of Paris, Guillaume de Tignonville, the citys chief law enforcement officer, and one of history's first detectives. As de Tignonville began to investigate, he realized that his hunt for the truth was much more dangerous than he ever could have imagined. Arich portrait of a distant world, a gripping story of conspiracy, crime and an increasingly desperate hunt for the truth. Guillaume de Tignonville, an unforgettable detective, a classic gumshoe from a cobblestoned era. Eric Jager is a professor at UCLA"--Provided by publisher. Genre:  True crime.
