The narrative centers around Onésime Coche, a reporter who grapples with a sudden plunge into the dark side of crime after unwittingly becoming entangled in a murder. The story promises a blend of suspense and psychological exploration as Coche navigates his evolving role from an innocent bystander to an active participant in the criminal world. The opening of the book introduces us to Onésime Coche, who, after a dinner with a friend, is walking home through a dimly lit Parisian neighborhood. While reflecting on his life and career, he becomes an unexpected witness to a crime—a violent incident involving three shadowy figures and a bleeding man. Shocked yet intrigued, Coche’s instincts as a reporter kick in, leading him to contemplate the implications of what he has seen. As he enters the murder scene, he is presented with the opportunity to manipulate the narrative, stirring a blend of curiosity and horror as he considers the power dynamics of crime, guilt, and the pursuit of glory in the press. This sets the stage for a thrilling exploration of morality and ambition as the plot unfolds.
