Alice Dehaene se recueille sur la tombe de sa soeur jumelle, Dorothée, décédée dix ans auparavant. Une question la taraude : à quoi rime cette photo de Dorothée, prise il y a à peine six mois, qu'elle a récupérée des mains d'un immigré clandestin ? Alice sait que quelque chose ne tourne pas rond dans sa tête. Son psychiatre à l'hôpital de Lille, Luc Graham, doit lui révéler le résultat d'un an de psychothérapie, lui apporter cette lumière qu'elle recherche depuis si longtemps. Mais les événements étranges qui se multiplient autour de la jeune femme vont l'en empêcher : son père, agressé chez lui à l'arme blanche, et qui prétend avoir tenté de se suicider ; ce chemisier ensanglanté qu'elle découvre dans sa douche, à propos duquel elle n'a pas le moindre souvenir ; et cet homme retrouvé nu à un abri de bus et qui semble avoir vu le diable en personne. Grâce à l'intervention de Julie Roqueval, assistante sociale en psychiatrie, Luc Graham, d'abord dubitatif, se décide enfin à mener l'enquête. Un aller simple vers la folie...
What You Don’t See Could Kill You In this international bestseller, which is soon to be a major motion picture penned by the screenwriter of Black Swan, the classic procedural meets cutting-edge science Lucie Henebelle, single mother and beleaguered detective, has just about enough on her plate when she receives a panicked phone call from an ex-lover who has developed a rare disorder after watching an obscure film from the 1950s. With help from the brooding Inspector Franck Sharko, who is exploring the movie’s connection to five unearthed corpses at a construction site, Lucie begins to strip away the layers of what may be the most disturbing film ever made. With more lives on the line, Sharko and Lucie struggle to solve this terrifying mystery before it’s too late. In a high-stakes, adrenaline-fueled hunt that jumps from France to Canada, Egypt to Rwanda, and beyond, this astonishing page-turner, with cinematic echoes from The Manchurian Candidate and the Bourne series, will keep you guessing until the very end.
