Summary
"1775. On a diplomatic trip to Vienna, Commissioner Nicolas Le Floch only just survives an attempt on his life as he investigates the breakdown of French secret intelligence in the city. He returns to a France in turmoil: people are rioting in protest at the soaring price of grain and bread. And back in Paris he is horrified to learn of his son's disappearance, which he senses must have an Austrian link. In the midst of these dramatic events, can Nicolas focus on solving the peculiar murder of his local baker?"--Page [4] of cover.
