Michel Bussi sets out on a terrifying investigation
Indeed, three tourists are found brutally murdered by a harpoon shot in the heart. These terrible crimes were committed in places linked to the history of slavery, which caused thousands of deaths in Guadeloupe. As the book progresses, readers will realize that there is no link between the three victims. But then what happened on the island, especially since a man predicts the crimes each time. Commander Valéric Kancel and his two deputies will do everything to find the assassin.
Michel Bussi once again takes the author on a breathtaking investigation. Through his lines, he also wishes to evoke the history of slavery. Indeed, in Guadeloupe, 90% of the inhabitants are descended from slaves. “A few days ago, the electricity was cut off by strikers. Hospitals had to take out generators”confided the author during an interview with the show Premiere Weekend broadcast on RTBF. “These manifestations of violence are quite recurrent in these islands. OWe can only understand them in relation to History and the profound inequalities which marked the birth of the settlement of the island. We still see the repercussions of this today.”
