This novel about seduction which borrows from the detective genre and the psychological novels offers a modern and original take on the theme of the Double. From the diary left behind in Italy by Manon, who seems to have committed suicide, Anne undertakes to penetrate her enigma. In her suspenseful quest, Anne exposes her troubled self, as she discovers the enlightening power of artful lies, the baring effect of made-up stories. From her retreat in Rome, Anne depicts a daring picture of love in our times.
