".. what was better? to be a murderer or a gullible fool?.."
A mix-up of of cars and an encounter with an Englishwoman, Marjorie, sends Jean-Marie Valaise's mundane world into a tail-spin. After a brief liaison, she returns home - he writes to her, he goes to her - is she there or not? A jealous husband, a dead body, an arrest. "... every mystery is an illusion..." Can Jean-Marie find his way out of the nightmare that follows.
Yet another outstanding tale from Dard.
