7/10
An interesting criminal investigation.
12 May 2024
The police major Paul has joined the investigation team managed by the police commander Marion Vidal and by the deputy district attorney Aurore Debac. The corpse of a homeless man is been found in a dune of the baie de Somme, no so far from the hunting lodge of Jean-Hughes de Wan,-an important industrialist-. Paul and the adjutant Jeremy meet Félicien Warlau-a former worker in the cannery of De Wan-who saw this morning a white car driving through the dune. After that Paul and Jeremy meet in the hunting lodge Jean-Hughes de Wan , the lawyer Claude Longuet and others guests (they have to show to the police their hunting rifle). At the same time the medical examiner discovers that the homeless man has eating foie gras and drunken champagne. Jean-Hughes de Wan becomes then the most import character in this investigation. Aurore Debac remembers the tragic death of her sister Anne-Lyne Debac and wants to know the truth about the death of her sister. And suddenly the investigation goes towards the jeweler Philippe Bernier , but Paul is not very convinced about it.

I enjoyed the performances of Jérôme Robart, Sonia Rolland, François Feroleto, Charlotte,Steve Driesen, Lionnel Astier, Elizabeth Bourgine,Gérard Laroche and Frédéric van den Driessche.
