I read all of the work of Piere LEMAITRE to date. SACRIFICES is below its ALEX novel but the talent of Pierre LEMAITRE In this latest installment of the trilogy lies in the mastery of style and above his talent to maintain, to maintain a breathless suspense from start to final course. Mr. Lemaitre HAT! I await your next books forward. This is not just a detective story, it is also and above of crime fiction. Thank you sir !!
