Title: Dangerous Liaisons - Pierre-Ambroise-François Choderlos de Laclos - book Summary : I hope that the adventure of little Volanges, which you seem to make so little of, will be taken into account for something: as if it were nothing, to take, in one evening, a young girl from her beloved Lover, to use her afterwards as much as one wishes and absolutely as one's own property, and without further embarrassment; to obtain from her what one does not even dare to demand from all the girls whose job it is; and this, without disturbing her in any way from her tender love... So that after my fantasy has passed, I will put her back in the arms of her Lover, so to speak, without her having noticed anything.

Title : Gratitudes - Delphine de Vigan - Book Summary : “I am a speech therapist. I work with words and silence. The unspoken. I work with shame, secrets, regrets. I work with absence, memories that have disappeared, and those that resurface, through a name, an image, a word. I work with the pain of yesterday and today. Confidences.” And the fear of dying. It's part of my job. But what continues to amaze me, what even astounds me, what even today, after more than ten years of practice, sometimes literally takes my breath away, is the persistence of childhood pain. A burning, incandescent imprint, despite the years. Which does not fade.  Michka is gradually losing her speech. Two people gather around her: Marie, a young woman she is very close to, and Jérôme, the speech therapist assigned to support her. EAN: 9782286163327 Used book The book matches the photo

Title : The Gods of Verdict - Michael Connelly - Book Summary : Attorney Mickey Haller is at rock bottom. He failed the district attorney election, his ex has moved away from him, and his daughter won't speak to him except to criticize him. One day, he receives a text from his assistant: Call me - 187. 187 being code for "murder," Haller knows he'll have to remobilize to defend the accused. But the victim, Gloria Dayton, is a prostitute Mickey loved dearly and thought he'd helped get back on the straight and narrow. Discovering that she'd duped him into continuing to prostitute herself and imagining that he might have put her in danger quickly puts him under pressure. Not to mention that some so-called law enforcement officials don't appreciate Haller meddling in their affairs.  Haller is a hero who doubts, an honest man almost swallowed up by darkness. Everything is in these temptations, this fragmentation, these hesitations, and it's fascinating. François Forestier, L'Obs.
