    • Karfreitag in Perpignan. Siebenhundert »Büßer« defilieren wie jedes Jahr seit dem 15. Jahrhundert in ihren traditionellen Gewändern durch die Gassen. Plötzlich bricht Panik aus. Als wieder Ruhe einkehrt, liegt einer der Gläubigen blutüberströmt am Boden. Er wurde offenbar erdolcht. Gleichzeitig wurde ein Juweliergeschäft ausgeraubt. Hängen die beiden Fälle zusammen? Lieutenant Sebag, der eigentlich mit seinem pubertierenden Sohn kämpft, ermittelt in den mediterranen Gassen der Stadt und stößt dabei auf die verschwiegene Seite einer französischen Legende.

      L’inverno sarà duro per Gilles Sebag, tenente della polizia di Perpignan, che scopre finalmente il tradimento di Claire. Mentre affronta questa dolorosa verità, si rifugia in depressione, whisky e insonnia, ma i casi che indaga lo costringono a confrontarsi con altre tragedie: una donna uccisa in un hotel, un depresso che si suicida, un uomo che minaccia di far esplodere un quartiere. Sulla città sembra pesare un’epidemia di adulteri che culminano in tragedia. Con una trama complessa e un’atmosfera intrigante, Philippe Georget ci coinvolge sempre di più con il suo stile scorrevole. I personaggi sono ben costruiti, i rapporti intensi e carichi di emozioni, accompagnati da dialoghi credibili e storie d’amore che mescolano gioie e dolori. L’autore riesce a catturare il lettore, facendolo immergere nei dolori e nelle speranze dei protagonisti. Questo noir insolito ruota attorno a storie di tradimenti, con l’investigatore stesso che subisce il primo tradimento. Torna il tenente Sebag, protagonista di un’avventura che ha vinto il Prix Méditerranée Roussillon 2016 e il Prix Virtuel du Roman Policier 2015.

      Inspector Sebag is a policeman in the South of France with an unparalleled sixth sense, who excels at slipping into the skin of killers and hunting them down. However, when a retired French Algerian cop is discovered in his apartment with the symbol OAS left near his body and few indications who kiled him or why, Sebag's skills are put to the test. Days later, when a controversial monument is destroyed and another French Algerian is shot down, Sebag begins to put the pieces together. Bringing to light the horrors, hopes, and treasons committed during the war in Algeria fifteen years ago, in this sequel to Georget's Summertime, All the Cats Are Bored, Lieutenant Gilles Sebag discovers more than just a killer, but an entire secret history that not everyone wants revealed.

    • It’s the middle of a long hot summer on the French Mediterranean shore and the town is teeming with tourists. Sebag and Molina, two tired cops who are being slowly devoured by dull routine and family worries, deal with the day’s misdemeanors and petty complaints at the Perpignan police headquarters. But then a young Dutch woman is found murdered on a beach at Argelès, and another disappears without a trace in the alleys of the city. Is it a serial killer obsessed with Dutch women? Maybe. The media senses fresh meat and moves in for the feeding frenzy. Out of the blue, Inspector Gilles Sebag finds himself thrust into the middle of a diabolical game. In order to focus on the matter at hand, he will have to put aside his cares, forget his suspicions about his wife’s unfaithfulness, ignore his heart murmur, and get over his existential angst. But there is more to this case than anyone suspects.
