Publisher's Synopsis
The Waterman is no ordinary killer, but then Daniel Jacquot is no ordinary detective. An ex-international rugby player, he is now a chief inspector, with homicide in Marseilles. It's here, in this city by the sea, that a shadowy, elusive killer steps on to the field of play, drugging, raping and drowning three young women in as many months. With a new partner, a rising body count and only a three-word tattoo to work with, Jacquot tracks his quarry, gradually closing on a ruthless, yet sometimes eccentric murderer the press have christened The Waterman.
