      About This Book

      The gathering in Paris of estranged members of an American family dominated by Granville Foote, a rich, tyrannical and eccentric artist, becomes the stage for the airing of long withheld anger and expectations fueled by delusion, fraud, and festering resentment. Drawn into this circle by two old friendships, retired professor Ondine Jellicoe and her lover, Pavel Havel, become reluctant participants in the family drama. Its inevitable conclusion in acts of desperate violence further involves them in the ensuing criminal investigation led by an old acquaintance: Commissaire Loïc Belfont of the Police Judiciaire.
