Books like Le dossier no. 113 by Émile Gaboriau


A bank safe is swiftly emptied; the only people with the necessary key and combination are two men. Naturally, police suspect an employee rather than the owner. Detective Monsieur Lecoq, however, sees the details others miss and questions whether one of the two is responsible or if an unlikely third party pulled the trick. His investigation is shrouded in secrecy, and he struggles to keep his involvement undisclosed. This mystery, like Gaboriau’s earlier works, blends crime and human drama, revealing characters whose good intentions can lead to tragic outcomes.
