About the story
Like a trompe-l'oeil painting, an appearance can be deceptive and inexorably distance us from the truth. Our perception of something is subjective and can sometimes lead us to give the wrong meaning to our interpretation of it! A young girl's body is found; she has been strangled. The unfortunate victim had reported a killer who strangled a young Romanian woman, Square des Épinettes in the 17th arrondissement of Paris. Commissioner Fletcher of the Criminal Brigade, who was running the witness, is immediately suspected! And for the Inspectorate General of the National Police, there is no doubt that behind this cop with a reputation yet without blemish hides a ripou, perverse what more? From France to Switzerland, from a private club to a hideout for thugs, from a police commander's flat on the banks of the Seine, from a prison cell to the office of an investigative judge, it is in a chase full of surprises that the investigation conducted jointly by the protagonists of this novel leads us. Will the Criminal Brigade and the Pimping Squad, which are associated in this investigation, succeed in solving this murder? Why is the victim-witness's neck imprinted with Commissioner Fletcher's imprint? This is a novel that skilfully combines a psychological approach with a police investigation. No doubt it would form the basis of a good police film, with a well-crafted story!
