In 1308 Charles le Boiteux, the Count of Provence, has the master of the Temple d’Aix arrested in the hope of getting his hands on the treasure which is supposedly hidden in the city’s commandery… but in vain!

Nearly five hundred years later, the Count’s Palace is demolished and the young Marius Granet unearths a remarkable secret in the Roman ruins. The murder or disappearance of several powerful figures in the city deepens still further the mystery surrounding the famous treasure. The lawyer Pascalis, tasked with getting to the bottom of all these intrigues, is murdered in his turn amid the revolutionary turmoil, with the city of Aix mired in unprecedented violence.

Will the young Marius Granet be able to help the lawyer Portalis, who takes over the case from his murdered predecessor? And does this treasure, which has already claimed so many victims, even really exist?
