Fracasse
The Mystery of the Quarry
S1 • E18
What is going on in the old quarries in the north-east of Paris? Théophrastus Renaudot - an early journalist - is leading the investigation... which leads to Diane de Crécy. And, as he also fancies himself as a theatre critic, he has to deal with Sigognac, who's fuming from a bad review in the broadsheet 'Gazette', the ancestor of our modern press. Fracasse and company have to save Theophrastus' neck, and put an end to the horrible so-called 'medical' experiments that are taking place in the underground labyrinths of the Buttes Chaumont.
