Binding: paperback

Section: Fiction

Originally published in the US as A Blade for Sale, The Adventures of Mosieur de Mailly describes Gaston de Mailly, ex-solider and down-at-heel gentleman, living in a Paris that has little use for his skill with a blade. Fortunately, his wit is equally sharp. Allying himself to the sceptical lawyer Fleurus, Mailly offers to try his hand at any case that can't be pursued through the normal channels of the law.
