Pierre Lemaitre is well known for writing criminal offenses fiction with an alchemical mixture of white-knuckle intensity, fearlessly unconventional plotting, and psychologically complicated identity development. In Irene Lemaitre ingeniously uses five modern day and typical literary murder views - from William McIlvanney's Laidlaw to Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho - as the framework which to create a diabolical prequel to his Criminal offense Writers' Relationship International Dagger Award-winning book Alex. Camille Verhoeven, whose diminutive stature belies his fierce intensity, has reached an unusually content (for him) place in life. He's respected by his co-workers, and he and his lovely better half, Irene, are expecting their first child. But when a new murder case strikes his desk - a dual torture-homicide that's so extreme that even the most seasoned officers are horrified - Verhoeven is conquer with a feeling of foreboding. As links emerge between the bloody set-piece with least one past unsolved murder, it becomes clear a calculating serial killer is at work. The press has a field day, taking particular pleasure in placing Verhoeven under the mass media spotlight (and revealing uncomfortable information on his personal life). Then Verhoeven makes a breakthrough finding: The murders are modeled after the exploits of serial killers from typical works of criminal offenses fiction. The dual murder was an exquisitely precise replication of an scene from Bret Easton Ellis' American Psycho, and one of the associated cold conditions was a faithful homage to Wayne Ellroy's The Black color Dahlia. The mass media circus gets to a fever pitch when the modus operandi of the killer, dubbed "The Novelist", is discovered. Worse, the Novelist has taken up to writing taunting characters to the authorities, emphasizing that he will stop departing any signs behind unless Verhoeven remains on the case. For reasons known and then the killer, the case is becoming personal.
