| Publisher Description: Captain Brocq, an officer of the Ministry of War, is assassinated while in possession of documents containing military secrets. The journalist Jerome Fandor, covering the story for La Capitale, seeks an interview with an associate of the murdered man, a diplomat called Baron Naarboveck. The reporter suspects spies employed by a foreign government, but Inspector Juve believes there is only one criminal who could be behind the tangled web of intrigue--the Genius of Evil himself, Fant mas "From the imaginative standpoint Fant mas is one of the richest works that exist." "Absurd and magnificent lyricism." |
