The tenth installment in the delightful, internationally acclaimed series featuring Chief of Police Bruno.

Bruno Courr ges is thrilled when he receives an invitation to the lavish birthday celebration of his childhood hero, World War II flying ace Marco "the Patriarch" Desaix. But when the party ends in the death of one of Marco's longtime friends, Gilbert, it turns into another day on the job for St. Denis's chief of police.

All signs point to a tragic accident, but Bruno isn't so sure, for there is more to the Desaix family's lives and loyalties than meets the eye. There's Victor, the Patriarch's son and Gilbert's sometimes rival, and Victor's seductive wife, Madeleine, whose roving eye intrigues Bruno even more than her fierce political ambitions. Not to mention the Patriarch himself--did his postwar Soviet ties intersect too closely with Gilbert's career in Cold War intelligence? As Bruno's entanglement with the Desaix family becomes more complicated, his inquiries into Gilbert's life will become a deadly threat to his own.

Better than dove
Good smells, lathers like crazy compared to similar soaps, so you don't need to use a ton at once. Feels nice and moisturizing, idk, I'm picky and I like it.

Leaves skin clean without drying it out
I am so glad I switched over to this body wash! It lathers really well while using it and a little bit goes a long way and makes the big bottle it comes in last a long time. I also really appreciate how it comes with a pump on the bottle, which makes it easy to use and is a huge selling point for me. I have not noticed any leftover residue on my skin after using it, and it rinses off well. My skin does not feel tight or dry after using it, which is nice because I shower daily. It has a pleasant smell, and it isn’t super overpowering or overwhelming. It gives that “just showered” feeling and leaves you feeling nice and clean. I also like how affordable it is, and with such a big bottle I think it is worth the value of this body wash.

Rich lather and wonderful fragrance; I feel like I'm getting a high-end spa treatment
This body wash is spectacular. It has a rich lather and smells wonderful. I feel like I'm getting a spa treatment. The only negative is that if I get any suds in my eyes, it does burn a bit. Other than this I love and would order this again. I love men's body washes and saw an advertisement for this on YouTube and decided to try it. I'm definitely impressed. The current price of $15.97 plus tax on subscribe and save is competitively priced for a 32-ounce pump bottle of body wash.

Rich, masculine, woody experience that differs from most body washes
This soap is almost meditative. Rich Woody, smoky, deep experience. Masculine. Not overly fresh, but extremely pleasant. This lathers and cleans better than most soaps. I’ve tried. I use a lot of Cremo brand products. Their soaps sud well and feel great. This one really caught me by surprise on how much I enjoyed it. If you’re tired of the normal synthetic body wash smells, give this a try.
