À Rebrousse-Temps

by Pascal Garnier, Cathy Muller (Illustrator)

Quelle histoire ! Cet après-midi, quand Mathilde se rend chez sa voisine, Madame Pinchon, celle-ci a disparu. La pendule est bloquée sur six heures pile ; en l'air, une mouche est immobile comme suspendue par un fil invisible et les flammes du feu ne dansent plus, gelées comme sur une photo !

About the author

Pascal Garnier, who died in March 2010, was a talented novelist, short story writer, children’s author and painter. From his home in the mountains of the Ardèche, he wrote fiction in a noir palette with a cast of characters drawn from ordinary provincial life. Though his writing is often very dark in tone, it sparkles with quirkily beautiful imagery and dry witted humour. Garnier’s work has been likened to the great thriller writer, Georges Simenon. Gallic books has now published many of his titles, including - The Panda Theory, How’s the Pain?, The Islanders, Moon in a Dead Eye, and The Front Seat Passenger.
