Publicity

When you open this book, there is no other way to get rid of it than to devour it to the end, and share the torments of the main character.

And the least we can say is that there are many.

Could he do otherwise than lie to his companion?

Will he manage to save his marriage, his reputation, his honor, the car dealership he runs?

Who is this journalist who comes to delve into her past, and reveal her terrible secret to the world?

Above all, will he manage to regain the memory of that strange hour that turned his life upside down?

When he emerged from a numb sleep, a woman was at his feet, dead.

He has no recollection of what happened.

How to deal with a guilt that he ended up accepting without understanding?

Is he really the murderer whom justice has condemned?

If so why did he kill?

And if not, who is the real culprit?

What questions, what suspense, what twists and turns in this first novel which asks another question, terrifying too: what if the same thing happened to us?
