Early in the morning, not so long ago, a visitor to the old Abbey of Orval (Belgium) discovered a corpse in the ruins. Paul Shoeman was the producer of the semi-historical documentary serial ‘Mysterious Belgium’. He was working on an episode titled ‘Nostradamus in Orval’, about the so-called prophecies of Nostradamus which are in fact containing a code to find the lost ‘fortune of the Bourbons’. This war chest of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette disappeared in the Abbey of Orval during the French Revolution…
The police didn’t succeed in solving the murder mystery. Can you solve it? Start your own investigation together with author Patrick Bernauw, go for a 'true treasure hunt', and find out who killed Paul Shoeman. How was this done? And what is the location of the ‘Treasure of Orval? (With solution, of course!)
