Description: Publisher Annotation: And then I heard, without question, that someone was climbing the distant stairway. The floor creaked under their weight each time that very someone moved down the hallway. At times, rather than advancing, they seemed to be dragging some heavy piece of furniture, until they managed to fall into a steady rhythm. Wake up, I told myself, you are in danger. But there was no way I could have opened my eyes; on the contrary, I felt as if I was sliding down a chute towards the darkest parts of my dreams, falling and falling, unable to stop." Upon embarking on a desperate race against time to rescue Mariska, Pierre Le Noir must travel to a haunted castle over Normandy's cliffs to investigate a mysterious apparition that all his toughest colleagues only whisper about in horror. There, during two tempestuous days in which he won't be able to trust anybody, Le Noir must interrogate Andrâe Breton in a frantic manner, as well as the other explosive members of the surrealist group, if he wants to see the woman he loves alive.
