Alex / Pierre Lemaitre, 362 p.
Police Commandant Camille Verhoeven of the French police is reluctantly drawn into the apparently random kidnapping of a young woman. Reluctant because the crime is eerily reminiscent of his own wife's disappearance and death 10 year before. Is there a connection, or is this kidnapping just a random coincidence coloring his thinking? Alternating chapters with the investigation, we follow the capture and torture of the young woman, left to her death suspended in cage in an empty warehouse, baited for rats. Is she truly innocent, or was she targeted for a gruesome past? You'll have to read to find out!
