An apartment in Paris

Guillaume Musso

An atmospheric detective novel that became a world bestseller that talks about crime and mystery, about art and loneliness. Madeleine, a former London police officer, rents a painter's studio in Paris to offer herself the seclusion she needs to find peace. Out of some misunderstanding, Gaspar, a misanthropic American writer, appears at her door with the same purpose: to isolate himself in order to write his play. These two troubled souls, desperately seeking loneliness, must necessarily coexist. The studio belonged to the famous painter Sean Lorenz and still exudes his passion for colors and light. It has been a year since Lawrence, devastated by the abduction and murder of his son, died leaving behind three paintings that have since disappeared. Enchanted by his genius, Madeleine and Gaspar join forces to discover these rare beauty paintings, but, in their quest to bring the real secret to the surface, they are confronted by their own demons.
