- Korte biografie
- Émile Gaboriau, French novelist, was born at Saujon (Charente Inférieure). He became secretary to Paul Féval, and, after publishing some novels and miscellaneous writings, found his real gift in _L'Affaire Lerouge_ (1866), a detective novel which was published in the _Pays_ and at once made his reputation. The story was produced on the stage in 1872. A long series of novels dealing with the annals of the police court followed, and proved very popular. He died at 40 of pulmonary apoplexy in Paris, and his final works were published posthumously.

The Lerouge Case door Emile (1) Gaboriau
This is the first in a series of crime novels written in the third quarter of the 19th century by this French author, who died tragically young aged only 40. It is widely considered to be the first French detective novel. I really enjoyed this - there was an economy of style and a crispness about the narrative that I relished. The murder of the Widow Lerouge was discovered and reported to the police in the first couple of paragraphs and the crime was seemingly resolved by chapter 4; only to give rise to unravellings of various characters' lives and pasts, with different motivating factors affecting their possible involvement in the cause of Lerouge's murder. There are inevitably echoes of the origins of Sherlock Holmes - "The misfortune is that the art is becoming lost. Great crimes are now so rare." This crime concerns not only murder but infant substitution and lifelong deceit. A great read and I am glad there are many more in this series (I thought until a few minutes ago it was a five book series, but I now realise it is some 10-11).… (meer)
Nadie sabe qué habría hecho el juez con el expediente 113, de no ser por la habilidad del inspector Lecoq y su capacidad de disfrazarse. De la caja fuerte del banquero Fauvel habían desaparecido 350.000 francos: sólo Fauvel y el cajero Prosper conocían la combinación de aquella caja concebida a prueba de ladrones: sólo ellos tenían una llave. Pero un leve rasguño en la puerta desata la imaginación de Lecoq, que descubre un turbio pasado de amor y odio, chantaje y asesinato. Era la época en que la novela policiaca todavía estaba contaminada por el folletín, pero la figura de Lecoq facilitaría la aparición de Sherlock Holmes.… (meer)

Ahí están las pistas, demasiado claras, demasiado contundentes... todo señala al culpable con claridad meridiana. Pero, ¡cuidado!, hay veces que las cosas son más sencillas, pueden complicarse hasta lo infinito. Afortunadamente, Tabaret de da cuenta a tiempo...
