A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In the highly acclaimed and award-winning novels Alex and Irene Pierre Lemaitre created a memorable character, Police Commandant Camille Verhoeven, who will seek justice at any cost. Now, in Camille, Verhoeven faces his most harrowing case yet, and the ultimate reckoning for the diminutive yet tenacious protagonist.
 
Camille—whose wife Irene was murdered by a sadistic serial killer—has at last opened his emotional lockbox for Anne Forestier, the new woman who has unexpectedly entered his life. But brutal history seems to repeat itself as Anne is violently attacked one day in what seems like a random instance of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. As she recovers, Camille begins the investigation while keeping his relationship with Anne secret from his superiors.
 
When it becomes clear that whoever assaulted Anne is determined to finish the job, Camille hides her in his country home. But in spite of his perfect covering of their trail, the mysterious antagonist finds them. Though the attack fails, Camille starts to wonder if there is more to the situation than meets the eye—as there is no way they could have been followed or discovered without some leak of information.
 
Defying his superiors, Camille dives into the new, deeply personal investigation with all the fervor he can muster, uncovering increasingly shocking connections between Anne, the attackers, his trusted colleagues, his Irene’s murderer, and himself.
 
In Camille, Pierre Lemaitre expertly guides many narrative threads towards a white-knuckle conclusion that will leave fans of this unforgettable series thoroughly thrilled and satisfied.

Revue de presse

Lemaitre is worthy of all the fuss. (Barry Forshaw Independent.)

Crime fiction of the highest class. (Geoffrey Wansell Daily Mail.)

Superior crime fiction, worthy of the international attention it has received. (Patrick Anderson Washington Post.)

A satisfying finis to the trilogy. (Barry Forshaw Independent.)

This original and poignant story is the final instalment in a trilogy that has been a dazzling success. (Jessica Mann Literary Review.)

Delivering more than its fair share of twists and turns, Camille is also a beautifully naunced portrait of a most unlikely hero, and one who's absence - if this truly is the last we'll see of Commandant Verhœven - will be keenly felt. (Declan Burke Irish Times.)

A really excellent suspense novelist. (Stephen King.)
