Publisher's summary

In 1920s France, the king of detectives takes on a new batch of baffling cases in a series of traditional crime adventure thrillers.

A ruthless killer stalks Paris!

A maniac is striking down women in the street in broad daylight! For weeks, women have been dropping dead to the ground in public, the cause of their deaths as mysterious as their silent assassin. One man, however, finds the link connecting all the Ladykiller's victims, and realizes he faces a deranged, unstoppable serial killer. That man is, of course....

Chantecoq. King of detectives, master of disguise.

With the death toll climbing daily, Chantecoq faces the greatest challenge of his long career. If he is to catch the Ladykiller, not only must he join forces with Paris's greatest medical expert, Professor Courtil, but he will also have to reach out to the regular police, his old colleagues from whom he has been estranged for so long.

With his usual skill and resourcefulness, Chantecoq plays a cat-and-mouse game with the Ladykiller—but this is one case that takes its toll. This time, could Chantecoq have finally met his match? Could this be his final adventure?

First published in France in 1929 (as "Le tueur des femmes"), and never before translated into English, this book is the final thrilling adventure in the Further Exploits of Chantecoq series, which sees the secret agent and expert spy catcher of Chantecoq and the Aubry Affair reborn as the greatest private detective of his age.
