Paul Féval, the father of the modern detective novel, turns Paris -- the beating heart of civilization -- into a dangerous jungle whose undergrowth shelters all manner of predators.
Written in 1863, The Parisian Jungle is the first in a series of crime novels depicting the exploits of the world's foremost international criminal organization, anticipating modern-day works such as The Godfather and The Sopranos.
"The notion that crime fiction could be, and was destined to be, a full-blown literary genre emerges from The Black Coats."
