This was a fantastic read! Would recommend to anyone interested in pre-revolutionary French history or fascinating true life mysteries. Thought the writing was great too - so compelling, I was up reading in the middle of the night.

A crushingly disappointing waste of excellent source material. Poorly written and uninteresting. Unfinishable.

Not only an interesting tale, but I feel like I could carry on an intelligent conversation about 17th Cen. French law now. Very cool. :)

This academic well researched account of Louis de la Pivarliere, a 17th century nobalman whose identity was questioned after he took up the life of a commoner, is interesting and amazingly easy to follow. The logical construction of details and background information sheds new light for me of the poverty of some regions of France at the same time as abundance in others.

Interesting anthropological facts about seventeenth-century France and murder! Yes sir, may I have another?
