Roquebrune sur Argens, its legends, its mystery Dupont de Ligonnès, its accidental deaths. The scorching spring that strikes the city stirs up tensions and brings back a painful past. Evil never lacks imagination.
“One never knows what one stumbles upon when one thinks they are tracking down evil. Sometimes, one finds oneself face to face with the devil himself.

Sometimes, one finds oneself face to face with the devil himself. In the municipal library of Roquebrune, a biography of Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès is found carefully annotated. Since his disappearance, the investigators have come back many times to search this high village of Provence and its surroundings.

The chartist Paule Nirsen is called to the scene to examine the notations. Are they from the hand of the fugitive? And why does the investigation always lead back to these lands, what ghosts populate the past of Roquebrune? Is there a beginning of an answer in the accidental deaths that follow one another and that are explained by an extreme heat wave? Joined by her friend Guillaume, a former gendarme, Paule does not know that she will have to decipher a much older riddle and that her reason will be put to the test like never before.”
