truth, and to assist them, police commissioner Nieman arrives from the capital. At the same time in Sarzac, another provincial town in France, two strange events occur on the same day: a robbery of the school archive and the breaking into a cemetery crypt where the body of ten-year-old Juda Itéiro rests. The connection between these crimes is elusive, but the closer the detectives get to the solution, the more terrifying and bloodier the victims left by the mysterious criminals become, and the clearer the dependency between the drama at the mountain university and the dark incidents in Sarzac is traced. A famous film based on the novel was released in 2000, starring Jean Reno and Vincent Cassel in the leading roles.
