DIS-MOI QUI DOIT MOURIR...
Tell Me Who Must Die
A stunning and compelling thriller.
DESCRIPTION
Antoine is one of the good guys. Four years ago, he and his wife lost their baby to SIDS. Now Antoine can no longer stand any injustice. He reads the newspapers like everyone else, but he just can't take it any more. What if, he wonders, just for once, he could settle the score between the good guys and all the assholes out there. One night, he gets his chance when he ends up saving the life of Montreal's biggest kingpin, Chuck Péloquina powerful man, bordering on the psychopathic. To repay his debt of honour, Chuck offers Antoine five hits. Of course, it's an offer he just can't refuse.
EXCERPT
When you save a man's life, you save his family's too, because they'd be lost without him. When you do that for a man, he owes his life to you, and the lives of his family members. Ain't that beautiful?
Er, very. Do you have a big family? Antoine has a sinking feeling that his question has struck him an implicit deal with Péloquin.
I have a wonderful family, Antoine. Francesca, my wife, and three wonderful children, my pride and joy. That's five lives I owe you.
Antoine closes his eyes for a moment, not wanting to see the depth of the abyss that has just opened before him.
That's my debt of honour to you. Now it's up to you to tell me when you want me to repay that debt, and with whose lives.
