La femme qui est dans mon lit
Mais bientôt, dans cette petite ville de province sans histoire : plusieurs jeunes femmes sont assassinées. La peur d’un tueur en série se propage, les rumeurs s’emballent. Qui est vraiment Sam ? Que cache Claire ? Jusqu’où ira Jean, prisonnier de son amour silencieux et de sa patience sans limites ?
Entre fascination et malaise, Anne Révah compose ici un roman noir explorant l’ambiguïté des liens, la force des obsessions et la frontière mouvante entre l’attachement et l’enfermement.

Presentation
Sam and Claire are fraternal twins: at school and at home, they are inseparable. Claire has always had a very strong psychological influence on her brother: she loves and protects him, sometimes to excess. He is insecure and not very good at socialising, and comes across as a strange, almost worrying boy... His sister acts as his intermediary with the outside world. When their parents die, the two young adults find themselves alone and even closer. Claire is now the head of the family and makes all the decisions. She works in a shoe shop, and finds Sam a job as a handler. Their affection knows no bounds. Claire has a secret garden: using a dating app, she arranges meetings with sexual partners in a nearby motel. Stealthy and highly codified, these encounters leave her feeling unsatisfied and ashamed...
Suddenly, panic breaks out in this sleepy, uneventful provincial town: some young girls are being murdered. Fear spreads: is a serial killer on the loose? Suspicions naturally turn to Sam: his strangeness makes him the ideal culprit.
Anne Révah has written a dark novel that combines a disturbing atmosphere with a story full of suspense and twists.
Anne Révah is a doctor. She already published six novels at Mercure de France including Quitter Venise, L’intime étrangère and À ma reine.
