關於產品
Product Information
In the late 1600s, Louis XIV assigns Nicolas de la Reynie to bring order to Paris after the brutal deaths of two magistrates. Reynie, pragmatic and fearless, discovers a network of witches, poisoners, and priests whose reach extends all the way to the king's court at Versailles. Based on court transcripts and Reynie's compulsive note-taking, Holly Tucker's engrossing true-crime narrative makes the characters breathe on the page as she follows the police chief into the dark labyrinths of crime-ridden Paris, the halls of royal palaces, secret courtrooms, and torture chambers.

Reviews
City of Light, City of Poison is a fascinating history of how a brilliant policeman brought light and law to Paris., City of Light, City of Poison [is] a cop drama of sorts, intermingled with a historian's tenacious pursuit of the evidence.... Tucker's way with a lavish description will have you planning your all-star adaptation of the book.... Fascinating., Holly Tucker tells [this] story . . . with great gusto and with an amazing array of facts. City of Light, City of Poison conjures up 17th century Paris and makes it seem close to the present day., A fierce tale of conspiracy and retribution.... Thanks to Tucker's sympathetic necromancy and her luscious resurrection of everyday detail, even in gilded palaces the human psyche seems familiarly deceitful and self-justifying., Holly Tucker tells [this] story... with great gusto and with an amazing array of facts. City of Light, City of Poison conjures up 17th century Paris and makes it seem close to the present day., In her fascinating book, Holly Tucker fuses history and mystery to create the dramatic effect of a novel while remaining true to the real-life plots and poisons of France's seventeenth century... A genuinely illuminating study of a remarkably amoral moment in human history., Tucker walks the tightrope between scholarship and storytelling with practiced bravado. City of Light, City of Poison is as tightly structured as an Agatha Christie mystery., Tucker is a deft scene-setter, and there is an enjoyable whiff of The Untouchables about her evocation of the Parisian underworld, Louis XIV's decision to clamp down on it, and the entry of her hero, La Reynie.... [This] is excellent material for a romp, which is precisely what Tucker makes of it., At once bewitching and chilling, the dark story of toxic intrigue, murder, and mayhem in the Sun King's France reads like the most gripping thriller, thanks to Holly Tucker's storytelling flair and relentless research., A stylish study of crimes committed by the high and mighty during the 72-year reign of the Sun King. . . . Tucker writes with gusto . . . [and] finds high drama., City of Light, City of Poison is not only a serious, meticulously researched work of nonfiction, it is an irresistible story. Full of danger, mystery, and excitement, it will keep you up well into the night, marveling at this forgotten world of dark intrigue., An intriguing amalgam of historical evocation and crime narrative. . . . Tucker tells the story as if it were a classic whodunit, bringing alive an extremely complicated and baffling series of events., Tucker . . . vividly brings to life a slice of Parisian history in [a] rigorously researched true-crime epic . . . [that] reads like a combination of the most compelling mystery fiction and Dumas's romances of twisted court intrigues., Tucker tells the story as if it were a classic whodunit, bringing alive an extremely complicated and baffling series of events.
