French Curse

Le commissaire Jean-Baptiste Adamsberg n'aime pas le printemps. Il se méfie de tous les signaux qui sonnent le retour des beaux jours. Et il a raison… Sa fiancée, Camille, se fait la malle, et son absence coupe les ailes du commissaire. Quelque chose vient de tomber sur la capitale, une énigme porteuse de malédiction, qui pourrait bien virer au malheur, si on ne la résout pas fissa… D'étranges signaux se répandent sur les portes des immeubles, et des mots inquiétants, mystérieux, sont lâchés à la criée sur la place publique. Et puis arrive ce qu'Adamsberg redoutait : un premier mort, le corps noirci, le visage figé dans une grimace de terreur, les signes de la peste.
