Andre Lenorman-alias Didouche, a well-known gangster and car thief-retires on the coast of Portugal. He returns to Martigny, Switzerland, to bury his son killed at the main square of town. Who killed his son and why? This is what Lenorman wants. This will eventually catch up to his past. An adventure written like in the early fifties, the story is a classical dark matrix of the universe where elegant men are violent and without guilt. The streets are dark. Treason is to be found at every corner. ======================================== Andre Lenorman, alias Didouche la Classe, bandit et truand range des voitures, a pris sa retraite au Portugal. Il revient a Martigny pour enterrer son fils Rico, assassine sur la Place Centrale en plein jour. Qui a tue son fils et pourquoi ? C'est ce que Lenorman vient chercher, quitte a remuer dangereusement le passe. Sans effets de manches, par une ecriture a la fois nostalgique et epuree, ce texte semble surgir des annees cinquante. Il est comme, la matrice de l'univers noir classique, classieux et definitif, ou les hommes sont elegants, violents, les rues eternellement eclairees au neon et les trahisons evidemment mortelles.“
