Description
Un cadavre, horriblement mutilé, suspendu entre ciel et terre dans les montagnes de la région
grenobloise. Une tombe, celle d'un petit garçon, mystérieusement « visitée » pendant la nuit,
cependant que les dossiers le concernant disparaissaient de son école.
Deux énigmes, que vont s'attacher à résoudre deux flics hors normes : Pierre Niémans, policier
génial, dont les méthodes peu orthodoxes ont compromis la carrière. Et Karim Abdouf, l'ancien
délinquant devenu flic, dont la couleur de peau et les dreadlocks suscitent plutôt la défiance
dans le trou de province où on l'a nommé...
Les deux affaires vont se rejoindre, et les deux hommes se reconnaître. Ensemble, ils vont
remonter vers le ter-rifiant secret des rivières pourpres. Un secret qui ne nous sera livré qu'aux
dernières pages de ce thriller exceptionnel, dû à l'auteur du Vol des cigognes et récemment
porté à l'écran par Mathieu Kassovitz.
Insightful reviews
Céline Lehu: Une histoire à couper le souffle et qui m'a maintenue en haleine, exactement
comme il y a 10 ans à peu près, lorsque je l'avais lue pour la première fois.
Pierre Niémans enquête sur le meurtre d'un jeune bibliothécaire d'université, retrouvé suspendu
entre ciel et terre non loin de Grenoble. A plusieurs centaines de kilomètres de là, dans le Lot,
Karim Abdouf enquête sur ce qui semblait être une banale profanation d'un caveau. Mais petit à
petit, les affaires vont se rejoindre.
Un thriller plein de suspense, bien écrit, et en prime ça se passe à côté de chez moi (même si la
ville de Guernon et son université sont entièrement fictives). L'adaptation cinématographique
est une vraie réussite, tournée en Isère et en Savoie, même si elle ne suit pas le livre à 100% et
se termine d'une manière bien différente.
Armin Hennig: Gut gemachter Gruselkrimi mit dunkler erotischer Komponente, die das Thema
Liebestod neu definiert und sich angenehm von der in-jedem-Fall mit der-nächstenVerdächtigen/Mörderin-ins-Bettgeh-Routine der Tatort-Komissare unterscheidet.
Da ich den Film kannte, gab die Frage, wer für die Mordserie verantwortlich ist, keine allzu
großen Rätsel mehr auf, dafür blieb genügend Spielraum sich auf die Feinheiten der
Ermittlungen zu konzentrieren.
Im Krimisektor würde ich wohl auf 75% gehen, gleichbedeutend mit einem knappen vierten
Stern. Rein literarisch bleiben aber doch manche Wünsche offen. Einige Lücken gehen
eventuell auf das Konto der Kürzungen fürs Hörbuch, von daher würde ich doch zur gedruckten
Fassung, falls ausreichend Lesezeit zur Verfügung steht.
Ari: Although I enjoy thrillers, I don't usually read works written by men, and this book embodies
pretty much everything I hate about the sub genre.
The murder in itself is gruesome, intricate, and frighteningly plausible, which is the reason why I
decided to try and break my "no male authors" rule (also Jean Reno, but that's beside the
point). But that's where my praise stops.
Niémans is a boring male superintendent with and entire closet full of anger management
issues, to the point where he's borderline psychopathic. And apparently I'm supposed to
emphasise with this tortured, gruff man who barks orders and verbally abuses women (unless
and even when he wants to fuck them - and apparently he wants to fuck literally every woman
he comes in contact with) and more often than not physically abuses his male colleagues. Such
a charming fellow. Even still, I would be more inclined to accept his violent inclination if he didn't
act like an entitled, sleazy, sexist pig.
Now, Abdouf is another can of worms entirely, and more to my liking. He's bright, bold,
enthusiastic, better fleshed-out, and more importantly different. His own brand of manpain is
easier to relate to - or ar the very least easier to indulge in. Even with all his faults Karim, as a
character, is fundamentally likeable. His chapters read the fastest because I actually managed
to switch my brain off and dive into the narration.
As for the book as a whole, I guess a point could be made that no one is impervious to disease,
be it physical or mental, and this novel sets out to explore all the different iterations of sickness what it entails, the different faces it can assume, and so on - but in order to do that (blame it on
the fact the book was written in 1997 or the distinctly French prose style) the greater message
gets lost in a sea of manpain and lack of tangible conclusion that I absolutely don't care for.
Lénia: Fiquei muito indecisa entre o three e o 4, mas acabei por me decidir por um 3,5.Gostei
bastante do início: um assassino anda a matar, abandonando corpos mutilados em locais
estranhos, em posição fetal. Entretanto numa povoação distante uma escola e uma sepultura
são arrombadas... Dois acontecimentos completamente independentes? Talvez nem tanto!
Durante 2/3 do livro o suspense mantém-se e a história evolui num sentido bastante
interessante, sendo que o leitor não consegue antever o que vem a seguir. As histórias acabam
inevitavelmente por se tocar e cada vez nos questionamos mais: mas afinal, o que é que se
passa? Gostei bastante desta parte do livro!As últimas a hundred páginas (+ ou -), onde
descobrimos a dimensão do que aconteceu, foram o que não me agradou assim tanto: as
motivações arranjadas para toda uma 'conspiração' são muito forçadas e pouco exactas. É
certo que me agradam muito livros em que a genética faz parte da história, mas também é
verdade que sou muito exigente com estes, uma vez que é a minha área de estudos e algo me
que apaixona imenso. E a inexactidão das informações acabou por me cortar o entusiasmo. É
certo que existem regiões isoladas com swimming pools genéticos limitados, em que genes
recessivos se expressarão mais facilmente, mas a partir daqui a informação dada é muito
fantasiosa e, por isso, a partir deste ponto o livro perdeu para mim a credibilidade! Ainda gostei
de descobrir o assassino e a sua história familiar: aí as coisas encaixaram e fizeram sentido,
mas nesta fase a história já não me estava a entusiasmar como antes.Outra coisa que me
levou a não gostar mais do livro, foi o facto de algumas coisas ficarem por explicar (por
exemplo, porque foram os corpos deixados naquelas posições?) e outras tantas deixadas ao
acaso (desde quando o acto de duas pessoas se sentarem frente a frente numa biblioteca as
levará ao altar? não vejo qualquer relação directa, para além de ser esta a 'vontade' do escritor)
e num policial, para que ecu o adore, tudo tem que ser explicado, mesmo o mais ínfimo
pormenor, e com lógica!

Christiane: "Les rivières pourpres"Beaucoup d'actionC’est un livre captivant, plein de péripéties
dont l’action se déroule coup sur coup. C’est aussi une histoire pleine de clichés avec un tas
de coïncidences et d'actes invraisemblables. Un des protagonistes de ce livre, le Commisaire
Pierre Niémans, est le typique super-flic des romans policiers: fort, dur, taciturne et très « cool »
mais avec des faiblaisses humaines: l’incapacité de controler sa rage et une phobie des
chiens.L’autre, Karim Abdouf, est Maghrebin, voleur de voitures devenu policier, clever et
déterminé mais à peine accepté par ses collègues pour être solitaire et différent. Orphelin,
grandi dans les cités de Nanterre parmi le crime et l. a. violence, il connaît los angeles coté los
angeles plus sombre et laide de l. a. ville. Les deux hommes sont des non-conformistes, des
guerriers qui aiment le danger, les sensations fortes, l. a. peur, l’adrenaline et ne se sentent
pas vraiment vivants que dans des occasions extrèmes. Chacun mène une enquête différente
dans un lieu différent, mais peu à peu les deux enquêtes s’approchent et convergent dans une
seule chasse d’un tueur mysterieux et sadique.Le element faible du roman c’est que toute
l’histoire dépend d’une seule décision peu croyable.
