Bol The first volume starring Zoé Bertillon, photographer and journalist solving mysteries in Paris in the end of 19th century. Her father is the illustrious Alphonse Bertillon, inventor of analysis and of anthropometric photography. She is a journalist for l'Epatant and photographs cadavers at the Parisian morgue. Her name is Zoe. In the year 1889, the first international congress on hypnotism takes place in Paris. Many attend to listen to the illustrious speakers Charcot, Brown-Séquard, Brouardel and Lombroso and discuss Bernheim's new theories. Suddenly in the midst of the congress, two psychiatrists are found murdered. They were stabbed and castrated. With the help of Police commissioner Cougnolles and Doctor Hippolyte, Zoe leads the investigation. It takes her from Princesse Mathilde's private salons to the underground rooms of the asylum where Dr. Hippolyte treats the insane using the methods of the day: electro-therapy and hydrotherapy. She soon comes to the frightening conclusion that the most dangerous of the mentally deranged are not locked up. Writing under the pseudonym of Iris Castor, Laure Murat is author of the classic La Maison du Docteur Blanche (Lattès, 2001 - Goncourt prize for a biography), Passage de l'Odéon (Fayard, 2003) and La Loi du genre (Fayard, 2006). She is a professor of 19th and 20th century French literature. Co-authoring under the same pseudonym is Zrinka Stahuljak, professor of medieval French literature.
