Aimee's childhood friend, Laure, is a policewoman. Her
partner, Jacques, has set up a meeting in Montmartre with
an informer. When Laure goes along as backup, Jacques is
lured to a rooftop, where he is shot to death. Laure's gun
has been fired, gunpowder residue is on her hands, and she
is charged with her partner's murder.
The police close ranks against the alleged cop killer.
Aimee is determined to clear Laure's name. In doing so,
she encounters separatist terrorists, Montmartre
prostitutes, a surrealist painter's stepdaughter, and a
crooked Corsican bar owner, and learns of "Big Ears"-the
French "ear in the sky" that records telephonic and
electronic communications for the security services.
Identifying Jacques' murderer brings her closer to solving
her own father's death, which still haunts her. She cannot
rest until she finds out who was responsible.
