A serial killer in Monaco? A female corpse washes up in the harbor of Monaco. Everything points to a suicide, but less than twenty-four hours later, there is another dead body: during the famous Monte Carlo Circus Festival, an acrobat is attacked and killed by a tiger. A tragic accident or murder? And what do the animal rights activists, who are protesting around the festival, have to do with it? Inspector Coco Dupont investigates with her taciturn colleague Henri Valeri, who is in the midst of a marital crisis. But there is no time to solve personal problems, as more deaths occur... "A new, fresh voice, and she can tell a story!" Klaus Peter Wolf "Jule Gölsdorf tells more than just a crime story; she reveals something about the workings of this small pirate state." Dieter Wedel.
