Between 1943 and 2003, nine people have been stabbed to death with a most unusual weapon: a trident. In each case, arrests were made, and sentences were passed. But Commissaire Adamsberg is convinced that all the murders are the work of one person, the terrifying Judge Fulgence.
Years before, Adamsberg's own brother had been the principal suspect in a similar case and avoided prison only thanks to Adamsberg's help. History repeats itself when Adamsberg, who is temporarily based in Quebec, is accused of having savagely murdered a young woman. In order to prove his innocence, Adamsberg must go on the run from the Canadian police. And find Judge Fulgence...
