MURDERS IN CHARTRES
By Sandrine Cohen
Synopsis: Chartres Cathedral... Just as a wedding is about to take place, the lifeless body of one of the witnesses is discovered in the cathedral’s crypt, near the Well of the Strong Saints. The investigation is assigned to Police Captains Victoire and Pierre Templard. Married in real life, the detective couple quickly realizes that the murder is connected to the legend of the Pregnant Virgin. The case becomes all the more delicate as Victoire and Pierre are both vying for the soon-to-be-vacant position of police commissioner. And it becomes clear that, despite the love and respect they have for each other, anything goes.
