Summary: Jean-Baptiste Poulain has been hired by the Baron of Brac to tutor his son. When the young teacher arrives on the island off the coast of Brittany, he?s immediately struck by how much the population seems to both hate and fear their lord. Which doesn?t stop the locals from going after the aristocrat?s people. Jean-Baptiste is brutally attacked - just after Nolwenn, the baron?s son, is found beaten to death. Set in the 1720's, the series follows the merchant's son and former medical student, Poulain, nicknamed 'The Marquis of lost souls,' as he travels to places where strange and mysterious phenomena have been observed, investigating inexplicable, seemingly supernatural crimes, with the aim of enriching his scientific knowledge as much as assisting people.
