Franck Thilliez depicts the horror, but he knows within a framework, make it live through characters that do not fall from the sky. These are human beings, with their everyday problems, their worries, their joys too, and that's the attraction, all the "charm" that is fair to the author: integrate the most heinous crimes in reality close, so close that the doubt sets in, and fear that goes with it. And if it were true? .. A great thriller that is comparable to the masters of the genre while bringing a personal touch, perfectly controlled.
