Publisher's summary

Février 1927. Le Tout-Paris assiste aux obsèques de Marcel Péricourt. Sa fille, Madeleine, doit prendre la tête de l'empire financier dont elle est l'héritière, mais le destin en décide autrement. Son fils, Paul, d'un geste inattendu et tragique, va placer Madeleine sur le chemin de la ruine et du déclassement.

Face à l'adversité des hommes, à la cupidité de son époque, à la corruption de son milieu et à l'ambition de son entourage, Madeleine devra déployer des trésors d'intelligence, d'énergie mais aussi de machiavélisme pour survivre et reconstruire sa vie. Tâche d'autant plus difficile dans une France qui observe, impuissante, les premières couleurs de l'incendie qui va ravager l'Europe.

Avec la participation de Zygmunt Miloszewski pour les mots lus en polonais.

Enthralling story with a historical view

Pierre Lemaitre is a great storyteller and narrator shedding light on a historical period he researched in detail. Political, social and other topics are deftly woven into an entertaining narrative.

Great entertainment

Great story telling with an interesting historical backdrop. It is even better than "Au revoir là-haut"
I am usually suspicious when the author doesn't leave the narration to a professional but he does an excellent job (however the snippets of Polish are odd and really don`t add anything).

un peu lent. je préfère au revoir là haut

l'histoire commence bien mais s'atténue et reste peu vif pour le restant de l'histoire. j'apprécie toujours l'ampleur de la recherche et les références historiques du livre
