In 1889 at the brand new Eiffel Tower, a woman collapses and dies on this great Paris landmark. Can a bee-sting really be the cause? Or is there a more sinister explanation? Enter young bookseller Victor Legris, present on the Tower at the time, he is determined to find out what actually happened. In this dazzling evocation of late-nineteenth century Paris, we follow Victor as his investigation takes him all over the city. But what will he do when the deaths begin to multiply and he is caught in a race against time?
