“Could you kill a blonde woman?”
Lançon goes pale, wriggles on his chair, and answers flatly:
“That depends on the circumstances.”
“But you're not saying you couldn't.”
Lançon turns away and doesn't reply.
It's 2033 and in the urban jungle of an overcrowded Marseille, a killer is attacking blonde women. For Inspector Canavese who is in charge of the investigation it's the beginning of a nightmare. This is all the more troubling because his superior wants him to collaborate with his "bête noire": an odd, unstable drop-out, part-dealer, part-crook, who has the gift of making him lose his temper but whose instinctive methods are gripping.
Disorders, Paul Borrelli's second novel, is the sequel to The Shadow of the Cat.
