Publisher's Synopsis
A stretch of river where disturbing mysteries lie hidden in its depths, an unsolved murder, a treasure that reveals dark secrets, strange visitors from elsewhere, paparazzi gone wild, words that mount a rebellion, a cat that talks... In this collection, Annick Stevenson has brought together twenty-two short stories born of her imagination, on the demarcation line between fantasy and personal memories. What they all have in common is that they have compelling and surprising elements. And they all provide the reader with an opportunity to step out of their daily life and perceive the world from a different perspective.
