The second volume of Simone de Beauvoirs autobiography, starting at the age of 21.
Questo autore, che ha transitato dalla carriera di architetto a quella di scrittore, porta una prospettiva unica alla scrittura di gialli, attingendo a esperienze di intrighi e potenziali loschi affari incontrati nella sua vita professionale. Il suo romanzo d'esordio presenta un architetto che si imbatte in un omicidio durante una grande inondazione, costringendolo ad assumere il ruolo di investigatore dilettante per proteggere la sua carriera e la sua vita. Lo stile narrativo dell'autore è plasmato dal suo background nella stesura di proposte e da un profondo apprezzamento per le storie familiari, inclusi racconti di guerra umoristici e sforzi giornalistici, infondendo alla sua narrativa sia suspense che dettagli autentici.
