Gaspard has lost everything except hope, while Marianne does what she can, but does it well… and with a smile!

Winter 1951. Two former Free French Forces soldiers appear on Avenue de la Gare.

When, a few years ago, Matthieu Lefèvre took out two life insurance policies for his wife Virginie, he didn't think it necessary to tell her.

You should always take a deep breath and exhale slowly when faced with things or events over which we have no control or which we don't understand. The two are, moreover, very closely linked…” A lesson to be learned, without a doubt. Publication date: December 1, 2023. Order now
