Flykiller by J Robert Janes
It's February 1943 and the famous old spa town of Vichy, France, has been closed for the duration of the German occupation, and all the grand hotels taken up by the Government of Marechal Petain. But corruption and murder reach into the highest levels. Detectives Jean-Louis St-Cyr and Hermann Kohler are summoned from Paris by Premier Pierre Laval who is desperate for outside assistance. Murder follows murder, but is the mysterious 'Flykiller' guilty, or is he or she using the murders to focus attention on the corruption? Is there a threat to Petain's life and that of the Government itself? Set against the oppressive backdrop of a captive society, this latest novel follows BEEKEEPER in an astonishingly original and gripping series of crime novels.
