Silent Rage

A NATIONAL BESTSELLER IN FRANCE.

THE SECRET OF HER FORTY-YEAR ENDURANCE.

A respectable elderly woman leaves an expensive resort’s swimming pool. Suddenly her eyes widen and her nerves tighten like strings: she recognizes the person she has seen. The woman watches as he returns to his bungalow. Then she runs to her room, grabs a large kitchen knife, and knocks on the man’s door. And when he opens it, she lunges at him and starts hacking wildly with the knife…

When she’s arrested, she doesn’t say a word. She doesn’t answer a single question from the investigator. Total silence… She even refuses to speak to her son Theo.

Knowing her mother, he understands that this burst of rage can’t be explained either by a mistake or a lapse of judgment. Something else is going on… Theo learns that the victim is a well-known doctor from Switzerland. He travels to Lausanne, but finds something completely different from what he expected. And this discovery will turn his entire life upside down…
