![]() I think what makes this a great read is that it explores psychological issues and in the end questions whether justice has been done. While following this theme we explore the relationships between the members of his investigative team. So in a sense Verhoeven is facing his demons, and not even he is sure he should be taking on this case. ![]() The resolution of the first part of the story, the kidnapping of Alex Prevost, leads seamlessly into the second which is why she was kidnapped, and then comes the story behind that.īut that is not all there is to this novel: Commandant Camille Verhoeven is returning to this kind of investigation a considerable time after his pregnant wife was kidnapped and died as a result. Escritor y guionista, Pierre Lemaitre (París, 1951) estudió Psicología, creó una empresa de formación pedagógica e impartió clases de literatura. That is certainly indicative of the complexity of the novel's structure which is a brachial one. Many reviewers have commented on the difficulty of writing a review that does not reveal too much about the novel. ALEX came on to my reading list as a result of winning the CWA International Dagger award, but also because of some excellent reviews that I have read. ![]()
