Read Murder Without Pity Storyline:

Paris, France at the beginning of the second millennium: dark with fog, riots over police killings, and Far Right demagogues frightening the confused. Such is the milieu surrounding dogged state criminal investigator Stanislas Cassel at the Palace of Justice. However, this grandson of a French propagandist for the Nazis during their Occupation, ashamed of his family's infamy, avoids anything political. Instead he buries himself tracking down perpetrators of small crimes, which he calls his Little Miseries. One current dossier involves a pensioner's bizarre murder. During his pursuit for the killer/s, Cassel meets a beautiful Jewish woman, whose family was shipped to a death camp in 1942. Haunted by man's inhumanity, she tries to alert him to the Far Right's reemergence, but to no avail. Only when tragedy strikes does he awake to his blindness and understand a truth: a larger evil beyond his Little Miseries as the Occupation portended, lurks. Murder Without Pity mixes historical fact with fiction. A story about the past, the present, betrayal, murder, and redemption, it is not your everyday mystery novel.
