A bloody thriller about Japanese culture background

Olivier Passan, Inspector in crime, tracking down a ruthless killer: the obstetrician. This disemboweled pregnant women and then burned their faetus. Gradually, the noose is tightening around a suspect. It is time Passan stops because her family starts to be the target of threats. They come from the serial killer? Or a different story?

The killings are barbaric, sharp characters. Sensitive souls refrain!

Kaiken is in France but in Japanese culture background. Passan Olivier is passionate about Japan and everything related to it (culture, rites and customs, the history ...). He also married a Japanese Naoko. This cold beauty is also the mother of their two children.

In conclusion, Kaiken is a pretty dark and bloody thriller that goes twists twists. Jean Christophe Grange leads us by the nose and takes us there or it was decided: the final battle!
