Description
A dazzling literary mystery from Marcus Sedgwick, set in Paris in 1899. Marcel Després is arrested for the murder of his wife and transferred to Salpêtrière asylum, but he's no ordinary patient: he cannot forget. The case is shrouded in secrecy, with a hurried cover-up hinting at dark secrets lurking in the shadows. A policeman and a doctor team up to unravel the mystery, but the answers lie within Marcel's mind - a mind that remembers every detail of his entire life. As they dig deeper, they must navigate the complexities of Marcel's memories to uncover the truth. This gripping tale explores the blurred lines between reality and memory, where the past and present collide in unexpected ways.
