Reviews
"H'naff's Capestan is a delightful creation, the members of her team amusing and the book lively."-- Marcel Berlins, The Times, "H'naff's debut, an amusingly literal Parisian version of Jussi Adler-Olsen's tales about Copenhagen's equally marginal Department Q, combines conscientious mystery mongering with good, somewhat clean fun." -- Kirkus Reviews, "H'naff's fun first novel offers a wry look at Parisian policing and the infinite twists of the bureaucracy . . . Commissaire Anne Capestan, her career on tenterhooks for her role in the shooting of a suspect, takes charge of a cold-case squad populated by departmental castoffs who can't be fired but refuse to quit. Starting with a sense of wounded pragmatism that gives way to an increasingly focused joy of the hunt, Capestan marshals [the] team." -- Publishers Weekly, "Henaff's Capestan is a delightful creation, the members of her team amusing and the book lively."-- The Times

Synopsis
Officer Anne Capestan's team of misfits will have to work together to investigate a decades-old unsolved murder . . . and in the process uncover a trail of corruption that leads to the top of the Paris police force. "Marvelous . . . An absorbing, sometimes laugh-out-loud mystery." -- New York Journal of Book "A delightful creation." -- The Times "Quirky and interesting . . . Much to savor." -- Library Journal Was the old lady murdered seven years ago really just the victim of a botched robbery? Who was behind the dead sailor discovered in the Seine with three gunshot wounds? And why does there seem to be a curious link with a ferry that was shipwrecked off the Florida coast many years previously? Suspended from her job as a promising police officer for firing "one bullet too many," Anne Capestan is expecting the worst when she is summoned to HQ to learn her fate. Instead, she is told that she will head up a new police squad, working on solving long-abandoned cold cases. Though relieved to still have a job, Capestan is not overjoyed by the prospect of her new role--and even less so when she meets her new team: a crowd of misfits, troublemakers, and problem cases, none of whom are fit for purpose and yet none of whom can be fired.

It was (are you sitting down?) wrapped in a double layer of bubblewrap, then shipped in a nice, thick, bubble envelope! The book was listed at a very reasonable price, packaged beautifully, and shipped quickly. This was a perfect transaction from an excellent Seller, one I would not hesitate to purchase from again.
