The Hanged Man's Tale is the second in a series by Gerald Jay focused on police Inspector Paul Mazarelle. There do seem to be a few details missing in the first impression -- allusions to the first in the series, The Paris Detective that I don't quite get without having read that book myself.
The cover is visually interesting, depicting a clue in the case, but it's a bit dark for my taste.
