Welcome to Litsy!

It's been a while since I was in the parisian world of commisaire Adamsberg, the enigmatic parisian detective who relies on his intuition. In this one, a crime from his childhood obsesses him with murder by stabbing with a trident. The plot takes him to Ottawa, where crimes follow him. Enjoyable series 3* and will read next at some point.

Another Commissaire Adamsberg mystery, and it is another odd, odd book, in a series of odd, odd books. I love this series and I love Adamsberg. This one ranges from France to Canada and Detroit and includes a scary dead(?) judge, a trident, drunken blackouts, a crazy woman, Mah Jong, questioned loyalties. I was stumped to the very end. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This mystery was over-complicated in my opinion. I have read the author before and enjoyed them - they are always very quirky thanks to the lead investigator‘s style of investigating. He drove me a little crazy this time.

Two somewhat different choices for the #junebookbugs prompt of "planet in the title".
