This case gets under Inspector Adamsberg's skin like never before!

The case awakens old horrors within him: thirty years ago, his brother Raphaël was wrongfully accused of a similar crime. The man Adamsberg believed to be the actual perpetrator has long been dead. Has he found a copycat? A relentless race against time begins, in which Adamsberg himself becomes a suspect.
