Loin des vivants

The book weaves real historical elements into the mystery, which added depth but also complexity. I'm curious what inspired that approach and how much research went into it.

The story had some quieter investigative moments that felt deliberate, but I wondered if that was intentional to build suspense or just the natural flow.

His reactions and growth felt authentic, but I’m interested in how much of that was planned from the start versus evolving during writing.
