Description:
"It is Paris, November 1993, and Aimee Leduc, a young private detective, is approached by a rabbi to decipher a fifty-year-old encrypted photograph and deliver it to an old woman in the Marais, the old Jewish quarter of Paris. When she gets there, she finds a corpse on whose forehead is carved a swastika. With the help of her partner, a dwarf with extraordinary computer skills, she determines to solve this horrendous crime. Her search for the killer leads her undercover inside a neo-Nazi group, to the next prime minister who is about to sign a trade agreement reminiscent of the old Vichy laws, and to a German war veteran. As the murders pile up Aimee finds herself in the middle of a dangerous game of current politics and old war crimes."--BOOK JACKET.
