Des Menottes dans la Bruyère: Jolis Jardins Maudits #8

From luxury to misery… Everything is under control… until everything changes. And Doreen finds herself stuck in the middle!

The four boxes of files Doreen inherited from journalist Bridgeman Solomon once helped her solve a crime and she hopes they will continue to enlighten her as she pokes her nose into new cases. But when she discovers pink satin handcuffs in the heather of her neighbor, the very aloof Richard de Genaro, she finds it hard to believe that these documents can help her with this matter.

That's not what keeps Doreen from taking a look, and in no time she's on a new trail between prostitution, embezzlement and, of course, murder. But the moment the records suggest a connection to Doreen's specialty, a cold case, her friend and partner in crime, Brigadier Mack Moreau, makes sure to keep an eye on her.

Accompanied by her faithful animals, Doreen decides to find out more about the connection between the respectable banker, who died in an accident followed by a hit-and-run, and the prostitute to whom the pink satin handcuffs belonged. As Doreen puts the pieces of the puzzle together, the end of her last investigation will surprise her.
