Synopsis

A young woman is found brutally murdered in Paris. Doctor Suzanne Lohmann is called to the scene of the crime to create a psychological profile of the killer.
A few weeks later, a strange "patient" of hers confesses to the murder of his mother and a young boy. Shortly after, the Parisian killer strikes again.

What if everything is linked? What if the manipulative "patient" is linked in some way to the mysterious charismatic man who has been sharing Suzanne's life ever since she was hit by the car he was driving?
While events seem to be closing in on her, Dr Lohmann must also live under the threat of "l'Anaconda", a dangerous psychopath who she helped put behind bars the year before and who has now escaped from prison, swearing revenge.

After critically acclaimed and bestselling Pavillon 38 (Lattès 2004), Regis Descott is back and so is his heroine Susanne Lohmann. This bone-chilling thriller skillfully mixes the themes of guilt, twins and transsexuality, the result is a modern, bloodcurdling version of the biblical story of Cain and Abel.
