    About this ebook

    The first in the classic series featuring Chief Inspector Damiot of the Paris police.


    "Chief Inspector Damiot of the Paris police, recuperating from a bullet wound, seeks sun and rest in Courville, his boyhood village in Provence. But Courville is lately in a ferment about the unsolved murders of two young girls--one a promiscuous villager, the other still unidentified. And there are also rumors of a monster seen at the supposedly-empty Chateau De Mohrt. Intrigued, Damiot soon discovers that the last of the De Mohrts, a severely crippled genius, is indeed in residence--with a scientific lab in full swing..." -- Kirkus

      We sat in front of a blazing fire in the hearth of the tiny hunting cabin. The chimney drew well as long as the door was kept slightly open, like Lem Putt advised, to get the draft just right. We were sipping a most wonderfully aged 56-year-old Caber
