Policeman Legros

Policeman Samuel Legros was an ordinary gendarmerie until he was summoned to the church one Saturday morning. Jean-Phillip Goutier was found murdered on the steps of the Cathedral in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.

The newspapers were calling it the Ghede murder; Goutier’s corpse had been left in the same sitting position favored by the Vodou deity known as Ghede. His legs were crossed, a cigar was dangling in his mouth, and dark sunglasses sat upon his eyes.
