Crime Fiction

On the one hand, there's Lola. She's a grumpy retired police commissioner who cannot go a day without her best friend: red wine. On the other hand, there's Ingrid, an American girl in love with Paris. She gives massages all day long and does stripteases at night. When a local girl is murdered - her body mutilated in the most cruel and unusual manner - suspicion falls on Maxime Duchamp, a charming restaurateur whose suave exterior hides a tragic past. Convinced of his innocence - persuaded in no small part by his magnetic appeal - Lola and Ingrid hit the streets to unmask the real killer, one whose gruesome methods are inspired by a morbid obsession with Japanese manga imagery.
