I must confess to having read this book only in translation, but it probably lost very little. It's a tense thriller set in Paris following the investigation of a strange series of killings which appear to be linked to the Black Death. Ultimately, I found this book to be a little unsatisfying - good as the story was the end was rushed and left too many questions unanswered. However, there are other books in this series and to my mind they are definitely worth seeking out.
