Rouge Karma

Parizh, 1968 god: studencheskie bunty, rabochie zabastovki, Pyataya respublika riskuet obrushit'sya, novoe budushchee - za blizhayshim povorotom. Posredi vseobshchego vozvyshennogo bezumiya yunyy romantik Erve obnaruzhivaet trup znakomoy studentki, chudovishchno izurodovannyy i v poze, yavno namekayushchey na yogu, - i k komu Erve obrashchat'sya, kak ne k starshemu bratu, veteranu voyny v Alzhire, prozhzhennomu ciniku i vdobavok policeyskomu ZHan-Lui Mershu? Parizh vot-vot vspyhnet kak spichka, na ulicah besporyadki, policii ne do nevedomyh man'yakov, i rassledovaniem zanimayutsya troe: ZHan-Lui otvechaet za policeyskuyu rabotu, Erve i Nikol', tozhe studentka i podruga ubitoy, - za kul'turnyy kontekst, kotorogo ZHan-Lui ne ponimaet i ne zhelaet ponimat'. V svoem novom romane «Krasnaya karma» priznannyy metr, obladatel' mnogochislennyh prestizhnyh premiy, neustrashimyy issledovatel' zla ZHan-Kristof Granzhe vnov' razdvigaet ramki zhanra istoricheskogo detektivnogo trillera. V etoy istorii budut zloveshchie sekty, chelovecheskaya zhestokost', rodovye tayny i hrupkaya nadezhda. Granzhe vedet svoih personazhey petlyayushchimi tropami po vsemu Parizhu, zatem v Indiyu - v Kal'kuttu i Varanasi, gde im otkroetsya strashnaya, obagrennaya krov'yu istina, - i, nakonec, v Vatikan, gde obnaruzhitsya razgadka i, vozmozhno, vozroditsya nadezhda. Eti troe mogli stat' geroyami Parizha 1968-go - no net, oni stali geroyami sovsem drugoy istorii, gorazdo zhutche i krovavee. Vpervye na russkom!
