Olivier Norek - Surtensions - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

This new from Fremeaux & Associes features the audiobook InchTerritoiresInch by Olivier Norek, read in French. Since the last survey of Captain Victor Coste and his team, the calm seems to have returned to the SDPJ 93. Not for long, alas! The execution of three young men will lead them on unimaginable paths. Cocaine loaves stashed at pensioners, a psychopath leader of barely thirteen, occult militia recruited from boxing clubs funded by the municipality, a deputy mayor found dead at home, tortured... and Coste is facing an army of ruthless thugs, able to cause a real revolution. But who is responsible for the carnage that will soon set the city ablaze? With this admirably controlled thriller, Olivier Norek plunges us into a series of terribly human dramas and criminal strategies - far from being as fictitious as one might think - where the murderers themselves are manipulated.

The Victorian era was a time of great change and rapid progress. Britain was undergoing the most tremendous development. Scientific discoveries had prompted the Industrial Revolution, which made Britain the world leader in iron and steel production. Science was undergoing a revolution, enabled by the groundbreaking work of Michael Faraday, who led the Royal Institution. Great swathes of Central Africa were mapped by the explorer David Livingstone and the understanding of humankind's place in the world was being redefined by the theories of the great naturalist Charles Darwin. Brunel's steam-driven ships were connecting continents and Florence Nightingale's work in hospitals helped lay the foundations for modern nursing. In literature, Charles Dickens put the lives of ordinary men and women at the centre of great novels for the first time, and in politics Britain was completely transformed by the reforms of William Gladstone. Written exclusively for Naxos AudioBooks, Great Victorians captures a fascinating period in world history.
