Maybe the worst indignity for a Paris cop is to be shot dead by an old granny he is trying to help cross the street in Paris on a frosty morning. An old lady needs protection with so many druggies around these days. Dressed as an elderly Vietnamese woman, Inspector Van Thian goes to investigate. Daniel Pennac's "Belleville Quintet," a cult success in France, also includes The Scapegoat, Monsieur Malaussene, Passion Fruit, and Write to Kill.
