Paris, 1890. Madame has a unique profession: she is paid to apply makeup at crime scenes and, sometimes, protect wealthy perpetrators of the worst crimes. When her clandestine expertise is required by the secret services, the time has come for Clara, her 17-year-old apprentice, to put her teachings into practice. But her first mission is quite different from those usually assigned to the crime makeup artist.
Thrust into a world of men, power, and conspiracy, Clara and Madame find themselves embroiled in political machinations that go far beyond their activities. Behind the plots hatched in the streets of Paris, it is precisely the fate of France that could be at stake if the elites persist in playing with peace... Fascinating and addictive, The Makeup Artist of Crime transports us to a Belle Époque where mischief and secrets reign.
And you, what's your price?
