This was such an interesting and engaging novel. Beautifully written and translated, from French I believe, it is the story of an author who dies in a climbing accident and all the pieces of his life that come before and together to make up his story. It’s a mystery within a mystery. I really enjoyed it and I thank Blackstone Publishing for my copy! (publishing 3/3/26)
