'THE FRENCH SUSPENSE KING' NEW YORK TIMES
'ONE OF THE GREAT THRILLER WRITERS OF OUR AGE' DAILY EXPRESS'THE KING OF EUROPEAN NOIR'LA REPUBBLICA, ITALY'IT'S NO WONDER THAT GUILLAUME MUSSO IS ONE OF FRANCE'S MOST LOVED, BESTSELLING AUTHORS' HARLAN COBENEVEN ANGELS HAVE THEIR DEMONS . . .PARIS, CHRISTMAS. Mathias Taillefer wakes up in hospital with a stranger at his bedside. The mysterious girl reveals herself to be a volunteer who has come to play the cello for patients. When she finds out Mathias is a cop, she asks him to take charge of a very special case. Mathias agrees to help her, sending them both headfirst into a deadly chain of events. And at the centre of it all, a woman named Angelique, whose intentions may not be all they seem . . .Feverous, surprising and uplifting, Musso's newest novel is a labyrinth of emotions where nothing is certain from one page to the next.It's not difficult to see why Guillaume Musso sells more books than any other French author (33 million so far). He is a cynical romantic who loves wrongfooting his readers. Here, the breathless game of cherchez-la-femme starts in a deserted, Covid-ravaged Paris, moves on to Venice and Beirut, before returning to France: "the most bureaucratic, Kafkaesque country in the world". The peculiar atmosphere of each city is described with economic precision. Il est bien fait! * The Times *
France's best-selling author never disappoints and this sinister tale of a former policeman who takes on the case of the disappearance of a young woman's mother is as good as anything Musso has done. Nothing is what it seems * Daily Mail *
A stunning storyline * RTL *
Don't believe those who tell you they saw the end coming * La Voix du Nord *
An extraordinary novel * Ouest France *
We are caught up in the waltz of these characters * L'Alsace *
Gripping * Le Journal du dimanche *
