Thriller
In Belle Époque Paris, the morgue is the place to see and be
seen … "This morning I was called upon to photograph the dead
again." So begins the story of Edouard Mas, a photographer's
assistant with a detective's soul. Edouard's job is to take
pictures of corpses before they are carted off to the Paris
Morgue. If the bodies are unidentified, they will be put
behind glass for the whole city to view, in a morbid display
of lost and found. Edouard begins to come across more and more bodies stripped
of their identification and laid out in methodical poses,
and he knows he is dealing with those who dabble in art—the
art of death. The morgue—their museum. Edouard's investigation takes him from the sterile halls of
La Salpêtrière to the opulent, smoke-filled soirees of high
society, but he must do everything in his power to stop the
artists of death, before they go after somebody he loves … In exquisite prose—so vivid you can almost taste the
absinthe and hear the rustling skirts of the Moulin Rouge
showgirls—Hunter tells an unforgettable tale of murder and
lust in the City of Light.
