Synopsis

In this intricate, intense mystery from the acclaimed “master of the Quebec thriller,” the ghosts of Victor Lessard’s past come back to haunt him as he investigates a horrific murder-suicide that doesn’t add up.

When a young Montreal family dies in an orgy of bloody violence, all signs point to a rampage by the father. But Victor Lessard isn’t convinced. The brilliant, brooding detective suspects that others were involved in the killings. But who? And why? As Lessard struggles to solve the puzzle, the discovery of a nightmarish chamber of horrors seems to confirm that the murders are part of a wider pattern.

Meanwhile, in the Major Crimes Unit, Jacinthe  Taillon is investigating the strange kidnapping of Laila François, a former street kid turned webcam girl. Could there be a connection with Lessard’s case?

With a ghost from his past making him doubt his own sanity, Lessard must evade the lethal operatives of a powerful, highly secretive organization as he races to untangle the mystery — before a diabolical killer can strike again.

A compelling read. A confusing story full of conflicting plot lines. Interesting characters who are multidimensional but, at times, risk being unrealistic. A story I had to finish once I began…I had to know what happened, and why. The Devil’s Choir is one of a series of police/crime/thrillers written......more

Fans of Dan Brown will find this right up their street. A thriller that comes at you from many different directions. It is a story you have to really concentrate on as there are many threads that do not add up until the end end of the book. It can leave you confused in places but is well worth perse......more
