Beekeeper – J. Robert Janes

A St-Cyr and Kohler Mystery: No 9

Paris, January 1943. The war rages throughout Europe, but France lies under an enforced and uneasy occupation...
Detectives Jean-Louis St-Cyr of the Surete Nationale and Hermann Kohler of the Gestapo are back in Paris - but they rarely have time ot draw breath before they are poking around in the darkened restaurant of the Gare de Lyon, looking into a shipment of honey.

Why honey? Because a beekeeper in Belleville has been murdered and the new widow has connections she would rather not discuss.

Before long the ramifications of the case stretch all the way to Switzerland - and to Stalingrad, graveyard to Hilter's war effort...
