Pel and the Nickname Game

When an operation to disband an armed robbery goes awry, the Chief holds Pel responsible… For the first time in years, Pel and his team are looking forward to being off-duty for the Christmas season, having closed the last of their cases – even if the nun had them baffled for a while - when news breaks of a planned armed robbery. After scrupulous preparation, the police go into action, hoping arrests will be made without a single shot being fired. But the operation does not go to plan and when Chief holds Pel responsible, Pel suspects there’s worse to come… Moody, sharp-tongued and worrying constantly about his health, Inspector Pel ensures that no case goes unsolved, in these mordantly witty French mysteries.
