Sophia Siméonidis, a Greek opera singer, wakes up one morning to discover that a tree has appeared overnight in the garden of her Paris house. Intrigued and unnerved, she seeks help from her neighbours: Vandoosler, an ex-cop fired from the police for having helped a murderer to escape, and three impecunious historians, Mathias, Marc and Lucien
– the three evangelists. They agree – both because they need the money and out of sheer curiosity – to dig around the tree and see if something has been buried there. They find nothing but soil.
A few weeks later, Sophia disappears and nobody worries too much until her body is found burnt to ashes in a car. Who killed the opera singer? Her husband, her ex-lover, her best friend? Or could it be her lovely niece recently moved to the capital? They all seem to have a motive.
Vandoosler and the three evangelists set out to find the truth.
