From one of the Guardian’s “10 Best Modern European Crime Writers,” this mystery set in the Caribbean stars “a fascinating heroine” (Kirkus Reviews).

It’s the spring of 1990, and French-Algerian judge Anne Marie Laveaud has been living and working in the French Caribbean department of Guadeloupe for more than a decade—but her days are still full of surprises. She’s only just starting to investigate the suspicious suicide of a high-profile environmental activist and media personality when she’s pulled off the case. Is it because she was getting too close to the truth?

From the award-winning author of the Inspector Trotti series, this “absorbing” tale of suspense set in the Leeward Islands is “laden with insights about the legacies of colonialism, such as nuanced racism, official corruption, and troubled interactions between men and women” (Publishers Weekly).
