Alice et le talisman d'ivoire

The story feels like it takes place in a vibrant, unique location. I'm curious whether the author based it on a real place or imagined it from scratch.

I loved trying to piece together the mystery alongside the characters, but I wonder if the clues were intentionally crafted to keep readers engaged.

The way the kids work together feels authentic and heartwarming. Does anyone think this dynamic added depth to the mystery?
