The Tapping Nose Murders: A Jacques Legrand Mystery

By Theo Voss

A body in the canal. A village of silence. A detective who taps the truth out of thin air.

Jacques Legrand has a habit the people of Saint-C neri can't ignore: he taps his nose when he's thinking. But Jacques isn't just eccentric; he's observant. When a German tourist is found dead near the old mill, the local police are ready to close the file. But Jacques notices the one thing they missed: a rusted typewriter at the bottom of the water, its "G" key missing-a key that holds the secret to a fifteen-year-old betrayal.

From the publisher Theo Voss comes a masterful debut that blends the atmospheric tension of a French noir with the charm of a classic whodunit. As Jacques navigates a maze of Resistance-era secrets and a long-lost love named Marie-Claire, he must decide if the truth is worth the price of the village's peace.

Fans of Louise Penny and Agatha Christie will be captivated by this first installment of the Jacques Legrand Mystery series.
