Spending his father’s last money to purchase the book, he is only to find out, to his father’s anger, that the treasure hunt is ten years out of date… Or is it out of date? Might the clues in fact lead somewhere? Nicolas decides to enter the convoluted interior of his neighbourhood, the Goutte d’Or, to find out if there is any treasure. This is an enchanting tale, discovering characters who live behind Paris’s Gare du Nord Station, entertaining for both adults and children alike.
