Autumn, All the Cats Return (The Inspector Sebag Mysteries Book 2)

The second Inspector Sebag mystery following Summertime, All the Cats Are Bored. Inspector Sebag is a policeman in southern France known for his ability to understand killers and track them down. When a retired French Algerian cop is found dead in his apartment with the symbol OAS left near his body and little evidence of who killed him or why, Sebag faces a difficult case. Days later, a controversial monument is destroyed and another French Algerian is shot. As Sebag investigates, he uncovers connections to the war in Algeria from fifteen years earlier, revealing horrors, hopes, and treasons from that period. Lt. Gilles Sebag discovers not only a killer but an entire secret history that some prefer to keep hidden.
