Widow's Walk

Inspector Paul Molinat is summoned back to his old home on the French Atlantic coast after an absence of ten years. The reason: two men's bodies were washed up on the beach in quick succession, both victims of a well-aimed shot to the head. The investigation leads Molinat to a seemingly quiet provincial village, where he discovers dark secrets and old enmities. To Molinat's displeasure, he is joined by the ambitious Inspector Leroyer - a colleague with whom he has an open rivalry. While the two investigators engage in a tough duel over interpretation and competence, the number of corpses piles up. The investigation leads Molinat not only to the depths of local society, but also back into his own past: years ago, he had an affair with a woman who was involved in a real estate scandal - a chapter he has long since repressed. With each new lead, the distrust between Molinat and Leroyer grows. It soon becomes clear that Leroyer is not only investigating the murder, but is also looking into Molinat's past. In the atmosphere of a seemingly idyllic seaside resort, a thrilling crime drama unfolds that shines with black humor and psychological depth.
