Une affaire d'État

Nora investigates the murder of an escort girl in Pigalle. Convinced the affair's linked to a plane carrying weapons that exploded over the Gulf of Guinea, and involves people in high places, the inspector shakes up her superiors. Murders and betrayals accumulate. Can the national interest really justify it all?
