Joël Dicker's novels are worldwide bestsellers - "The Truth about the Harry Quebert Case" was celebrated as a literary sensation and earned the Swiss author the "Prix Goncourt". His latest thriller, An Untamed Beast, is about a dazzling married couple and a sophisticated jewel robbery: two burglars are preparing to rob a jeweler in Geneva. This robbery is anything but a random crime... Five days earlier, Sophie Braun is planning a party to celebrate her 40th birthday. She lives with her family in a spacious house on Lake Geneva, and life seems to smile upon her. But the idyll is deceptive. Her husband is involved in criminal activities. Her neighbor, a supposedly irreproachable policeman, spies on the most intimate corners of her life. And then a stranger offers her a gift that will shake her to the core.
