Title : Barthelemy and his anger - Charles Exbrayat - book
Summary :
In a fishing district, the most deprived of them, Barthélemy, has managed, through deprivation and savings, to acquire the tiny fortune that allows him to fix up his house, buy his boat, and ask for Marie's hand in marriage. Barthélemy is happy, and everyone is happy with him. But on his wedding night, a drunken thug from the neighboring town kills Marie on purpose. It is not an accident, but murder. Barthélemy now lives only for revenge. He and his companions have faith in justice and they do not understand how, using false witnesses, Maître Craponne manages to have the murderer acquitted to please the old mob boss, Charles Berry. This scandalous acquittal brings the fishermen's entire moral universe to a crash. But soon, they pull themselves together, and since the men of the town flout justice, they will take it upon themselves.
