A BREATH-TAKING CRIME NOVEL SET IN BRITTANY!
Gaspard Gonidec. Twenty-eight years old. Good-looking. Armed with a Master's degree in Town Planning Law. Unemployed, with a restless heart. To make matters worse, he lives in Douarnenez, a once-thriving town in southern Finistère, slowly fading beneath the Breton drizzle.
He drifts through life like the ever-receding tides, a dreamer waiting for the wave that might finally carry him away from the still waters of his existence.
It arrives after sixteen years behind bars.
Léna Le Goff has come home. The woman everyone remembers as the "whore of the lower quays", the one who brought shame upon the town. Her return reignites old resentments and long-buried passions. Even the ghosts seem disturbed by her presence.
Storm warning. The winds of bitterness are rising...
