"The Clairvoyant"
This is how his colleagues at the police station of Paris used to call Jacques-Louis Barajean, chief
inspector for more than 20 years. His nickname derives from his incredible capacity of probing the
human mind with studied questions. When Inspector Barajean asks people a question, everything from
the tone to the subject has been accurately planned.
A small, bald man with deceiving looks, Barajean seems to be aware of what people are going to say
even before they answer his questions. Combined with his sharp eye for particulars, Barajean is
considered France's best investigator.
Irrelevant fact: He seems to concentrate on sucking a pipe he never lights.
