Description
A bleak winter sets the tone for a brutal and compelling novel. Georges Simenon's prose paints a vivid picture of a world without pity, where a young man's actions lead him down a path from which he can never return.
Frank, a young man struggling to find meaning in his life, turns to a string of violent and sordid crimes. As the snow piles up, so do the consequences of his actions, leading to a devastating journey through a psychological no man's land.
This new translation of Simenon's classic novel is a gripping portrayal of a world in crisis, where the lines between right and wrong are constantly blurred.
