Kommissar Dupin: Bretonische Nächte

PëRMBLEDHJE

When Kadeg visits his aunt in the Côte des Abers, the inspector experiences a shock: Joelle Contel is badly injured on the stairs and dies a few minutes later. While searching for the intruder, Kadeg is knocked out from behind. While Commissioner Dupin takes up the investigation with the usual meticulousness, he worries for the life of his colleague, who is in a coma. Through Nolwenn, Dupin learns about Kadeg's ominous family history and his special closeness to Aunt Joelle, who took care of him after his parents' death. Upon arriving in northern Brittany, Dupin encounters more suspicious deaths and learns of strife within the Contel fruit-growing clan. Joelle's brother Victor resents the murdered woman for not having sold him fertile farmland. Dupin's investigations also focus on the long-ago death of a young woman from Romania, for which the harvest worker Iupescu was convicted.
