    Never Forget (eBook, ePUB)
    What happened between two people on a cliff's edge on the French coast is at the heart of "a tantalizing puzzle" in this twisting noir thriller (Kirkus Reviews). In the town of Yport, during a run along Europe's tallest cliff, Jamal notices a red scarf hanging on a fence. Then he sees the woman, her dress torn, her back to the void, her eyes fixed on his own. Jamal holds the scarf out to her like a buoy. A few seconds later, the stranger's lifeless body is found lying on the icy pebbles of the empty beach below. Around her neck, the red scarf. Everyone thinks he pushed her. He only wanted to save her. That's Jamal's version. Do you believe it? "One of France's most ingenious crime writers." -The Sunday Times Acclaim for Michel Bussi's novels "Wonderfully ingenious and altogether satisfying." -The New York Times Book Review "Harlan Coben fans will enjoy [the] intriguing characters and twisty conclusion." -Library Journal "A well-constructed literary thriller with a strong sense of place and deep understanding of human nature." -Kirkus Reviews
