His mother is a fortuneteller whose husband is sent to the galley that accounts for the unusual circumstances of his birth. He is the only person who doubts Monsieur Madeleine, the mayor of Monteril-sur-mer, and almost tenders his resignation upon realizing his mistake.

For 10 points-- name this character that commits suicide in the River Seine, the ruthless inspector who pursues Jean Valjean in Victor Hugo's Les Miserables.
