EVEN ANGELS HAVE THEIR DEMONS . . .

PARIS, CHRISTMAS 2021. After a heart attack, Mathias Taillefer wakes up in hospital with a stranger at his bedside. The mysterious girl reveals herself to be Louise Collange, a volunteer who has come to play the cello for patients. When she finds out Mathias is a cop, she asks him to take charge of a very special case.

Her mother, a former ballerina at the Paris Opera Ballet, died last year after falling from her balcony, and Louise has a hunch she was pushed. Though hesitant at first, Mathias agrees to help her, sending them both headfirst into a deadly chain of events. And at the centre of it all, a woman named Angélique, whose angelic intentions may not be all they seem . . .

Feverous, surprising and uplifting, Musso's newest novel is a labyrinth of emotions where nothing is certain from one page to the next.

MEDIA REVIEWS

It's not difficult to see why Guillaume Musso sells more books than any other French author (33 million so far). He is a cynical romantic who loves wrongfooting his readers. Here, the breathless game of cherchez-la-femme starts in a deserted, Covid-ravaged Paris, moves on to Venice and Beirut, before returning to France: "the most bureaucratic, Kafkaesque country in the world". The peculiar atmosphere of each city is described with economic precision. Il est bien fait! - The Times

France's best-selling author never disappoints and this sinister tale of a former policeman who takes on the case of the disappearance of a young woman's mother is as good as anything Musso has done. Nothing is what it seems - Daily Mail

A stunning storyline - RTL

Don't believe those who tell you they saw the end coming - La Voix du Nord

An extraordinary novel - Ouest France

We are caught up in the waltz of these characters - L'Alsace

Gripping - Le Journal du dimanche

“A cracking good yarn!”

A rather odd premise here - a young, talented cellist asking a retired policeman to help her find out what happened when her mother fell to her death from a balcony - or was she pusehed?. Of course, the young cellist... More

“Fast paced thriller - suspend belief and enjoy”

Guillaume Musso is the modern master of the French thriller.

If you like your thrillers fast- paced with more twists and turns than a roller coaster then Angélique will hit the spot .
