Jérôme Morval has been found dead in the stream that runs through the gardens at Giverny, where Monet did his famous paintings.

In Jérôme’s pocket is a postcard of Monet’s ‘Water Lilies’ with the words: Eleven years old. Happy Birthday.

Entangled in the mystery are three women: a young painting prodigy, the seductive village schoolteacher and an old widow who watches over the village from a mill by the stream.

All three of them share a secret.
But what do they know about Jérôme’s death?
And what is the connection to the mysterious ‘Black Water Lilies’, a rumoured masterpiece by Monet that has never been found?

PRAISE FOR MICHEL BUSSI, THE INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON 'A novel so extraordinary that it reminded me of reading Stieg Larsson for the very first time' The Sunday Times on After the Crash 'Inventive, original and incredibly entertaining' Sunday Mirror on Don't Let Go 'Combines an extraordinarily inventive plot with characters haunted by long-ago events - and demonstrates why he has such a hold on readers' The Times on Time Is A Killer
A work of genius befitting the masterpiece by Monet at its heart. The award-winning author weaves an enchanting tale that kept me absolutely hooked as Bussi cleverly breaks all the perceived rules of plotting in a story containing riddles within riddles... The result is simply stunning.
