In the late 1600s, Louis XIV assigns Nicolas de la Reynie to bring order to Paris after the brutal deaths of two magistrates. Reynie, pragmatic and fearless, discovers a network of witches, poisoners, and priests whose reach extends all the way to the king's court at Versailles. Based on court transcripts and Reynie's compulsive note-taking, Holly Tucker's engrossing true-crime narrative makes the characters breathe on the page as she follows the police chief into the dark labyrinths of crime-ridden Paris, the halls of royal palaces, secret courtrooms, and torture chambers.

Super cute baggy jeans
Size: Small, Color: Calypso Blue, Size: Small, Color: Calypso Blue
I am short and these jeans are like normal jeans for me. 5’1” and size small ordered. I love these jeans!! They are baggy and have a good stretch. They have a cute drawstring as well as a belt. Plenty of pockets. Comfy and soft denim plus zippers are good too. Recommended!!

Soft and stretchy and a close FP dupe.
These are super cute and look just like the picture. The material is stretchy and comfortable. The zipper is really smooth. They run a little big but look cute. Pretty close to the FP but not exact. Great jeans if you want the look but don't want to spend the FP price.

Nope. Returned.
Size: Medium, Color: Calypso Blue
These were returned because they were all wrong. Too short, too loose in the but but not loose enough to look like barrel jeans. Worst of all the color was not what was pictured. The wash and accent bleaching was so ugly. Also, they were too stretchy. I tried them on and walk around the house to see what I thought and they got too big after about 5 minutes.
