The most terrible criminals...have long memories.Now that the threat of a war between England and France has been foiled by Chief Inspector Malet's initiative and courage, life can flow again like the river that flows through Paris.Larouche has found a place to live, where he can earn some money and, perhaps, find an occupation that will suit him. Since his employer and landlord is in no hurry to make him work, Larouche has a chance to learn about medicine while dealing with a pack of students with mayhem on their mind.

Malet and Elise are planning their wedding, which will take place near Christmas. And then chaos descends as a police precinct is attacked by insurgents and the precinct's Chief Inspector is killed. Malet finds many leads: some revolutionary students, and, perhaps, a would-be master criminal who view Malet as a threat to be exterminated. And suddenly the people that Malet holds dear are being attacked, and it is clear that he is marked for Assassination, himself.

Elise is planning for their wedding, Malet is dealing with a troupe of bodyguards apparently recruited from the Suret?....And who are the Watchers in the Shadows?

It should be a hectic Christmas.
