Goat Song: Murder and Mayhem in Montmartre

Goat Song: Murder and Mayhem in Montmartre

by Chantal Pelletier (Author), Chantal Pelletier (Author), Ian Monk (Translator)

Synopsis

The star male dancer of the Moulin Rouge and a beautiful young woman have been murdered. Their naked bodies are found entwined in a blood splattered dressing room. A squatter is killed in a nearby flat, his throat chewed open, the teeth marks human. Seemingly unconnected deaths that reveal a sinister pattern of Montmartre property scams fuelled by crack dealing and prostitution. Inspector Maurice Laice is plagued by a lesbian boss who bombards him with tales of her sexual adventures. Yet they make a good team, each obsessed for different reasons by the crimes at hand. The investigation takes Maurice from murky dealings at the cabaret to the world of organized crime in Corsica and back.
