THE CINEMATOGRAPH DETECTIVE

Macabre Screenings

Brigitte AUBERT

This series covers the years 1890 to 1900 and the highly original plots are based on the cinema, the opium of the decade that totally remodeled the 20th Century's imaginary.

1897. At the Charity Bazar, a lamp explodes. Louis discovers the disemboweled body of a young woman amongst the burned corpses. A lead takes him to Aix-Les-Bains, the thermal spa that is all the fashion in Europe.

Brigitte Aubert works as a program planner for the cinema and has published fifteen or so thrillers (Le Seuil) , as well as detective novels for young adults.

"Orchestrating unstoppable suspense and skillfully manipulating the art of the cliffhanger and the unexpected, Brigitte Aubert has begun a promising series." Ciné Live
