You're dead without dough. Pierre Balmain was not only dead but buried over eighteen feet deep in squalor. He could not afford a clean polo. His hand to mouth small life took his and parents and he swore to make a difference. But he did not reckon the lethal difference he was rushing to grab, until he started his spate of murder. The law of murder says, "murder one and you will certainly murder three to cover up. The money was good and he was up to his neck with indigence, what do you expect him to do? Who couldn't, if the price was one million pounds. Anyone who could do a little murder on the side for such an amount. And that's Balmain's idea of the whole thing. He made the difference in a big way, but such differences never last. Soon he became the hottest bird in the whole world. France, America and Switzerland wanted him for a barbecue if they could set hands on him.
