- Summary
- The gripping true story of a brutal serial killer in Nazi-Occupied Paris. Commissaire Georges-Victor Massu, head of the Brigade Criminelle, was tasked with tracking down the elusive murderer; his main suspect: Dr. Marcel Petiot, a handsome, charming physician with remarkable charisma. Petiot would soon be charged with twenty-seven murders, though authorities suspected the total was higher, even as many as 150. But Potoit's trial soon became a circus when the prosecution stumbled in its marathon cross-examinations as it attempted to try all twenty-seven cases at once. King draws extensively on many new sources, including the massive, classified French police file on Dr. Petiot
