Although I had preferred as the previous player called "Estelle" (and other readers as well), the detective novel "The Man with blue circles", I was delighted to read the new book by Fred Vargas. There here humorous winks oeils as I love them. I note that I read 5 "thrillers" recent since early July, and it is this one that seems to me the best of 5. very far. But I think it will surprise no :-). Fred Vargas takes time to develop the survey to describe the characters and their sentiments..c'est therefore a novel of great quality. Another I liked was "The surgeon". With a very fine translation. I place it in the second I read. But very little right after "A little further on the right"
