"Pelletier is a wonderful storyteller. She is a master of funny, bittersweet dialogue. A classic roman noir hero, the world weary inspector, is completely reinvented."—Le Monde
The naked bodies of a male dancer and a young girl are found entwined backstage in the Moulin Rouge. A junkie is killed, his throat chewed open, the teeth marks human. Seemingly unconnected, these deaths form a sinister pattern involving crack dealers and shady property deals.
Inspector Maurice Less is plagued by a female boss who bombards him with tales of her sexual exploits. Together they uncover a trail of fear and broken dreams that reaches from Corsica into the heart of Paris.
Winner of the Grand Prix du Roman Noir de Cognac.

Goat Song: Murder and Mayhem in Montmartre
This didn't live up to the previous high standards of crime novels from Bitter Lemon Press for me. It is dark and there are plenty of attempts at humour, which I think miss the mark, though they are never easy in translation.
The plot gets more obscure as the novel continues, but also less important. The strengths of the novel are in the setting of Montmartre and its motley cast of characters, led by Parisian detective Maurice Laice, known as 'More Is Less'. After the naked bodies of a male dancer and a beautiful young girl are found entwined in a dressing room at the Moulin Rouge, Laice is reluctantly forced into action.
It is an intense story, veering between levity and terror in alternate paragraphs, but in need of some trimming, and editing of clumsy sex scenes.
