When Louis Kehlweiler spots a human toe bone on a Paris street, he goes looking for the bone's owner although no bodies with a missing toe have been reported.

The 3 evangelists are less prominent in this book than I remember them being in the 1st book. Louis is the focus here, with the evangelists in supporting roles - and Lucien hardly even that. Despite that, it was a fun, quirky read which kept my interest throughout.

My yearly Vargas. Only this year since there aren't many left for me to read.
The plot is vintage Vargas where the journey to discovering the culprit is more important than the reveal.

This is the only book I‘ve read since I‘ve been sent to work from home. I mostly read it in the middle of the night while sleep was elusive. A pretty good Vargas, Marc and Mathias meet an original, newly set aside investigator of the Interior. Louis or Ludwig is an obstinate, dog with a bone, type of person. The plot is vintage Vargas where the journey to discovering the culprit is more important than the reveal. #staysafe

The plan is to finish the ARC, make some progress into Catton's and read The Vargas.
