Specialised in the fine art of telephone tapping for the Parisian anti-narcotics unit, Patience Portefeux, a disillusioned, financially hard-pressed French-Arabic police interpreter, is in for a big surprise. When Patience makes an unexpected and equally shocking discovery, a mountain of premium-grade hash disappears right under the nose of Chief Philippe, and just like that, elegant Paris has a new drug queen. Now, with her extensive insider knowledge and expertise on the subject, Patience will never have to worry about bills. However, what good is money when freedom is at stake?
