The phrase "cherchez la femme" is from this novel (chapter 3), a quote by the detective character Joseph Fouch. The cheap American edition mentioned by Reed was possibly issued in nine volumes by George Munro's sons, New York, Seaside Library Pocket Edition, c. 1900. The volumes are titled, in order, The Mohicans of Paris, The Suicides, Monsieur Sarranti, Princess Regina, Salvator, Conrad de Valgeneuse, Rose-de-Noël, The Chief of Police, and Madame de Rozan.
