Klappentext

Brussels in the late summer of 2024: Inspector Marcel Vermeylen receives an unusual visitor - the notary Dominique de Lasteyrie hands him a letter from the English tabloid journalist Trevor Chesterfield, who has died under mysterious circumstances. Marcel discovers that Trevor had been blackmailing numerous members of the Brussels establishment, threatening to reveal their juicy secrets. At first, the inspector doesn't know where to start with these 'Spicy Files' - there are countless suspects, and they all have a lot to lose. What's more, his stuffy superior has little desire to burn his fingers on a highly explosive case and wants to hand the matter over to state security. The rebellious inspector decides to investigate on his own. A race against time starts that leads Marcel deeper and deeper into the Brussels quagmire of vanity and cover-ups. And not least into his country's past.'Spicy Files' is the first volume in the crime series about the shrewd Brussels inspector Marcel Vermeylen.
