An unpronounceable name, a bruised face, and a terrible past: held captive and physically abused, she survived by demonstrating an inhuman capacity for violence. Since then, some people view Céleste as a monster, including herself. And yet is because she is a loving wife, a caring mother and a committed colleague that she succeeds in solving one of those tragic cases that leave an indelible mark on a police officer.
In the regional park of Brière near Guérande, two islands are home to a small community where natives and newcomers congregate around a restaurant and a bistro. But this seemingly friendly little world is also home to a cold-blooded criminal who mutilates pregnant women. Dispatched to the scene, Céleste Ibar, a police captain from Nantes, and her faithful lieutenant Ithri Maksen try to make the most of the clues left behind by the murderer. But how do you unmask a monster who looks just like everyone else? Thanks to the arrival of an unexpected ally and their own doggedness, the two officers manage to pick up the trail of the killer, but too late – a final murder is committed, leaving both of them agonising over their own shortcomings and blindness.
