Sharko always compared the first days of an investigation to the beginning of a hunt.
Detectives are a pack of hounds, rushing to chase their prey. With one difference: this time the prey is them—Lucie Ennebel and Frank Sharko, policemen from the Orfevre Quay, 36. On the line was the very existence of their family and the well-being of their two little sons.
In the basement of a house hidden in the southern suburbs of Paris, Lucie—fighting for her own life—shot the criminal maniac. Frank Sharko, arriving to help, destroyed the evidence, trying to protect Lucie. The investigation of this murder is assigned to Commissioner Sharko and his team. But this murky case can, like a house of cards, destroy the unity of Lucie and Frank—undermining the very foundation of their partnership.
