Monsieur Lecoq — Volume 1 by Emile Gaboriau

"Monsieur Lecoq — Volume 1" by Émile Gaboriau is a detective novel serialized in 1868. When a deadly brawl erupts in a Parisian bar, leaving bodies scattered and one suspect in custody, veteran Inspector Gévrol dismisses it as a simple tavern fight. But young policeman Lecoq sees something more sinister beneath the surface. Following mysterious footprints in the snow and deciphering cryptic clues, he uncovers evidence of a sophisticated conspiracy involving disguised aristocrats and vanished accomplices, transforming what seemed obvious into an intricate puzzle.
