About the Book
Lucas Duval has it all: a prestigious law firm in Paris, designer suits, and the respect of the French elite. But his perfect life hides a secret that could destroy everything. Twenty-eight years ago, Lucas was a criminal, the protégé of Django Moreau, the most dangerous man in Marseille. Until he disappeared, changed his identity, and buried his past. When an unmarked envelope arrives with a Marseille postmark, Lucas knows Django has returned. And Django always collects his debts.
Now he must choose: protect the life he built with lies or face the truth of who he really was? A psychological thriller set in Paris and Marseille about identity, redemption, and the price of success. For readers who enjoyed Carlos Ruiz Zafón, Javier Castillo, and Arturo Pérez-Reverte.

I liked the story line!!
I find Carlos is a master story teller. He is having a way with the words to spin a tell which reminds me of the great James Chase. Overall a good read.
A good thriller
A great story, tense and full of secrets and mysteries. I love plots like this one about the protagonist's secret past and the gradual revelation of the truth as the plot unfolds. In this story, Lucas has an inner question, even a problem, and I think the author managed to convey the full range of the protagonist's emotions in words. A good thriller.
