What is the link between a fatal bank heist, an ambitious prince, an opera première, the Chief of Police and the Triple Alliance between England, France and Russia? Set in Belle-Epoque Paris against a backdrop of political and international intrigue, Tiger Brigades tells the legendary story of Inspector Valentin and his Tiger Brigade men as they battle against corrupt civil servants, anarchist gangsters and Constance, the manipulative wife of a Russian prince. Amidst a chaotic and murderous web of deceit and greed, they race against the clock to protect national security, and perhaps even to prevent war.
