Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for a copy of this book.

In 1986, three 10 years olds, Adrien, Étienne and Nina met for the first time at school and become quickly inseparable.

31 years later, a car is pulled from a lake with a body inside. What has this to do with the 3 childhood friends?

Perrin takes us on a wild journey as we weave through 3 decades of the events in this trio's lives. This is a book that slowly gives us little jigsaw pieces of the puzzle that you can't wait to put together as the two timelines come closer to each other.

This is full and intrigue and unpredictable twists.
