Monaco Murders: The Monte Carlo Ledger

Monaco Murders: The Monte Carlo Ledger is a fast, atmospheric crime thriller set in a world where wealth buys privacy—and privacy can be weaponised.

On the morning of the Monaco Grand Prix, private banker Laurent Vasseur is found dead beneath a luxury penthouse. The official explanation is immediate and convenient: a tragic accident in a city that cannot afford disruption. But when financial investigator Céleste Duval is called in, the details don't add up. The scene is too clean, the timeline too smooth, and the people in charge are far too eager for the case to disappear.

A single missing object turns a simple death into a high-stakes investigation: a ledger Vasseur guarded fiercely, rumoured to link powerful names, private favours, and hidden financial arrangements. The more Céleste digs, the more Monaco's polished surface reveals its machinery—concierge systems that feel like fortresses, alibis built on perfect logistics, and "quiet exceptions" that only exist for the right people.

With pressure rising and her access narrowing by the hour, Céleste must untangle a network designed to resist scrutiny—where influence moves through back channels, reputations are treated like assets, and the most dangerous crimes are the ones that look effortless.

In Monaco, truth isn't always denied.

Sometimes it's negotiated.
