Il ne faut pas parler dans l'ascenseur by Martin Michaud

Against medical advice, she walks out of the hospital. Is he a part of the scandal and blackmail? Is there any connection between the three victims?ĭuring the ongoing investigation, Simone recovers from her coma. Was blackmail a motive? Was the young woman now lying in a coma in hospital one of the sex workers? The police chief wants this part of the investigation to end. He secretly filmed the guests and their antics. A woman, Simone, has been left in a coma after a hit and run.ĭetective Lessard finds evidence that the deceased hospital administrator may have been running a sex and drug ring attended by the rich and powerful. His severed finger has been taken as a trophy, or perhaps, Lessard believes, to use its print to unlock a safe or computer. A top hospital administrator has been stabbed to death in his office. A diabolical killer is on the streets of Montreal. I was completely baffled where it was all leading, but so were Lessard and his colleagues. There are twists and turns and red herrings galore. He is a recovering alcoholic who has struggled with the urge to drink. His wife left him and took their two teenaged children. Any concerns that Without Blood would be less exciting were soon vanquished.ĭetective Victor Lessard was demoted from the Major Crimes Unit. Never Forget, the first book translated was a definite favourite of mine. Its suspense keeps escalating to an intense nerve-shattering crescendo. This is a fast-paced, ingenious, gripping thriller. The 5 book series featuring Detective Victor Lessard was originally written in French, and are now being impeccably translated to English. I wish to express my sincere thanks to Net Galley and Dundurn Press for Without Blood by Martin Michaud.
