Freshly transferred to the SRPJ in Strasbourg, police captain César Wagner is taking his place in his new team. Hardened bachelor, big-hearted cop, compulsive hypochondriac, obsessed by illness as much as by his job, César Wagner is not always in control of his life. And with good reason: three women occupy him and preoccupy him. Three women with whom he has to do everything: his mother, his fellow coroner, and his boss.
