In this superb follow-up to the highly praised "Le Crime", Louis Morgon is living a quiet life of good food, good wine, and good friends. When his house is burgled, he thinks nothing of it. But neither the burglar nor the motive for the burglary are as simple as they seem. And the consequences of the seemingly trivial break-in will lead Louis and his loved ones to the ends of the earth - and quite possibly to the ends of their lives.
