A call from the gendarmerie challenges something a family has regarded as settled for years.
Valérie Perrin's premise makes familiarity provisional: an apparently known life may contain another story. Choose this for readers drawn to family mysteries and the emotional consequences of discovery. The attraction lies in how a new fact can change the meaning of earlier memories without changing the memories themselves.
WHO IS IT FOR?
For readers drawn to character, language and the tensions within ordinary lives.
