Bruno, Chief of Police, already has too much on his plate, mediating both a domestic abuse case and a local development proposal that seems just too good to be true. But two weeks before Easter, the body of a naked woman in a boat drifts down the river towards St Denis. The pentagram painted on her chest and the black candles that accompany her journey all suggest Satanism. The victim's identity is a mystery and nobody is coming forward.
