About This Book

Au cœur du Palais-Royal, la suite met en scène une entrevue entre le régent et un bossu au sujet d'Henri de Lagardère et du meurtre du duc de Nevers. Lagardère, ayant juré d'assumer la tutelle et la protection de la fille du duc, détient des éléments susceptibles d'identifier un assassin masqué mais manque d'une preuve décisive. L'épisode conjugue intrigues de cour, investigations policières et dilemmes d'honneur, et fait avancer les tensions qui promettent bientôt une confrontation et la mise au jour des responsabilités.
