He tries to remember what brought him into contact with a gang that frequented the hotel Unic in the area. His quest through seedy cafés and cheap hotels becomes an enquiry into a woman, Dannie, whom Jean loved and who once tried to admit to a terrible crime. Over the course of several voyages between past and present, we meet various shady characters, and discover that Dannie may have killed "someone". As his memories overlap with the discovery of an old vice squad dossier, Jean reinvestigates the closed case of a crime where he could well be the last remaining witness.Translated from the French by Mark PolizzottiLanguage: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 199mmItem Length: 131mmItem Width: 12mmItem Weight: 118gAuthor: Patrick ModianoTranslator: Mark PolizzottiContributor: Mark Polizzotti (Translated by)Genre: FictionRelease Year: 2017 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
