Amid the shrapnel and the chaos, while the entire west side of Paris is a field of ruins, a photographer fascinated by the suffering of young women takes “suggestive” photos to sell to a particular clientele. Young women begin disappearing, and when Caroline, a seamstress who volunteers at a first aid station, is counted among the missing, her fiancé Nicolas, a member of the Commune’s National Guard, and Communal security officer Antoine, sets off independently in search of her. Their race against the clock to find her takes them through the shell-shocked streets of Paris, and introduces them to a cast of fascinating characters.A breathless criminal investigation against the bloody canvas of the French Revolution Review Quote“An astounding epic in which the reader is taken above all with the strength of the solidarity and heroism of ordinary people, and the infinite hope of those who believe to the end in the causes they are fighting for.” Review Quote“Le Corre is an aquafortist. From beginning to end of this dazzling novel, he deepens the shadows in his Paris of soot and night. Here and there, touches of colour: the bloody red of the Communards’ flag, the incandescence of a fire, the flame of a hurricane lamp. Glimmers of hope flicker and don’t go out.” Review Quote“In a perfectly constructed historical frame, supported by breathless intrigue, Hervé Le Corre offers up a fascinating red-and-black novel. To be read passionately!” Key Selling Points: Prize Winning Crime Author (Prix du roman noir Nouvel Obs/Bibliobs, Grand Prix de Littérature policière, Grand Prix du roman noir français de Cognac, Prix Mystère de la critique) Historical thriller Video and visual assets Proofs: physical and on NetGalley Target readership Readers of historical and/or crime novels, literary fiction, fiction in translation For readers of Pure by Andrew Miller, A Place of Greater Safety by Hilary Mantel, Les Miserables by Victor Hugo Giá sản phẩm trên Tiki đã bao gồm thuế theo luật hiện hành.
