10. Baudelaire's Revenge by Bob van Laerhoven

Sun Jun 26, 2016, 08:09 PM

Jun 2016

"The Parisians are trapped like rats in their beautiful city but a series of gruesome murders captures their fascination and distracts them from the realities of war. The killer leaves lines from the recently deceased Charles Baudelaire's controversial anthology Les fleurs du mal on each corpse, written in the poet's exact handwriting."

I'm also deep in the weeds of the Poldark series; starting #5, The Black Moon
