Can you ever really know your nearest?

It is 1900 and the Comte de Landois has ordered his wife, Marguerite, from Paris to his side. Her journey into the pastoral quiet of the Loir valley is shattered by the appearance of a man dead on the railway tracks. Who is he? And why does Marguerite's young travelling companion shudder at the sight of him?

More troubling still, the Comte presents her with a babe saved from icy waters and wants adoption to procede. His sudden friendships with local clerics mean there are to be new rules applied to Marguerite's behaviour.

When it turns out that the sister of her young companion has vanished, Margarete calls Chief Inspector Durand to her side. Together, they try to unravel a tangled world of small town secrets, sacred ends and unholy loves.

Intrepid, aristocratic, Marguerite de Landois leaps from the pages of PARIS REQUIEM to land in the midst of a new belle époque mystery.
