Jalub Szamalek, Guillaume Musso and Tiffany Quay Tyson... Our favorite thrillers to shiver a little more when the cold arrives.


You Know Who

by Jakub Szamalek

Julita, a young Polish journalist, has a great clickable story to raise the temperature of the website where she works and which always asks for more: the accidental death of TV star Czeslaw Komar.

But when she wants to carry out a fierce and meticulous investigation into this accident which seems to her to be an assassination, she puts her finger in a gear that leads us into a frantic race, to life and death, in the dark bowels of the web and social networks, the darknet and the manipulations of hackers.

This suspense novel by Jakub Szamalek, the first translated into French, is a terrifying dive into the heart of cybercrime, it's scary and we want more.

Bingo, there are two volumes to come.

You Know Who

Angelica

, by Guillaume Musso

It all starts delicately, and with music.

A young girl plays the cello in a room at the Pompidou hospital.

In bed, Mathias Taillefer, a cop downright dented by life and, holding the bow, Louise Collange who would like to know the truth about the "suicide" of her mother who was a star dancer at the Paris Opera.

They don't know each other and everything becomes labyrinthine with the appearance of Angélique, an intrepid and greedy nurse… From Paris to Venice – superbly described –, we discover the hidden lives of each.

The plot spins quickly in this novel which proves to us that family secrets can be damn harmful to health and that it is prudent to consume them in moderation, except when Guillaume Musso is the conductor.

A Deep Sleep

, by Tiffany Quay Tyson

White Forest, Mississippi, 1976. In blistering heat, 16-year-old Willet and 14-year-old Bert go swimming with their little sister in a quarry the locals say is cursed.

Having moved away for a moment, they discover that Pansy has disappeared;

their mother will never recover and their crook father will abandon them.

Years later, a clue leads them to the Everglades, Florida... Intertwining eras and playing on superstitions to draw out a disturbing mythology, Tiffany Quay Tyson excels in describing atmospheres and landscapes as the moods of her heroine hurt, Bert.

She signs a black novel of great beauty, which also speaks of the harshness of the female condition and the violence of a country which too often makes its citizens left behind.

A Deep Sleep
