Derues

About “Derues”

Antoine-François Derues, an orphan raised first by a relative who expelled him for theft and later by two cousins, was described as a pale and fragile individual marked by abnormal perversity. He became an incorrigible thief, a consummate hypocrite, and a cold-blooded assassin, destined for an immortality of crime and a place among the most execrable monsters in human history.
