Sous nos yeux

The pacing and order of revelations really kept me on the edge of my seat. I'm curious whether this was planned from the start or evolved during writing.

The way the neighborhood's secrets slowly surfaced made the stakes feel so personal. Did the setting influence how the characters' motives unfolded?

The blend of personal and criminal elements made the story feel very real, but I wonder if this dual focus was always part of the plan.
