Summary

On l'a peint soigneusement sur les treize portes d'un immeuble parisien : un grand 4 noir, inversé, à la base élargie. Le commissaire Adamsberg les photographie, et hésite : simple graffiti, ou menace ? A l'autre bout de la ville, Joss, l'ancien marin breton devenu Crieur de nouvelles est perplexe. Depuis trois semaines, une main glisse à la nuit d'incompréhensibles missives dans sa boîte à messages. Un amuseur ? Un cinglé ? Son ancêtre murmure à son oreille : "Fais gaffe à toi, Joss. Il n'y a pas que du beau dans la tête de l'homme".

L'excellente formation de comédien de Thierry Janssen lui permet d'investir avec une parfaite crédibilité la galerie de personnages singuliers que Fred Vargas rassemble dans ce polar envoûtant.

Versatile narrator

The strength of Fred Vargas' novels lies in the characters and their relationships (though the plot can be so far fetched as to require active suspension of disbelief). Enjoyed the very expressive narrator who was able to bring the different characters to life - especially the interplay/contrast between Joss Le Guern and Decambrais in the first half of the book. (my first language is English, trying to improve received French by listening concurrently with reading!)
