A wild animal – with Joël Dicker and Christian Berkel
Joël Dicker’s novels are international bestsellers – the Swiss author’s “The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair” was hailed as a literary sensation and won him the Prix Goncourt. His latest thriller, Un animal sauvage [A Wild Animal], is about a dazzling couple and an ingenious jewel theft. In Geneva, two burglars are preparing to rob a jeweler, and it’s much more than a random break-in. Go back five days, and Sophie Braun is planning a party to celebrate her 40th birthday. She lives with her family in a large house on Lake Geneva and appears to be leading a charmed life. But the idyllic impression is deceptive because her husband is caught up in criminal schemes. Her neighbor, a seemingly irreproachable police officer, is prying into the most intimate corners of her life. And then, a stranger offers her a gift that will shake her to the core.
