In a few days they will be cut off from the world but it is the sudden return of a traveller after three decades away that is arousing the greatest concern: someone will have to stand down. Woe betide the loser. [ HORS LA BRUME ] EMERGING FROM THE FOG Two secondary school pupils are murdered in a car park by the lake. Laughter like the hooting of an owl is heard through the fog of the night. The case is entrusted to Superintendent Lanecquer who starts having visions of the killer-bodies pile up-and of hundreds of birds nailed to tree trunks 4 Marie Dormann [marie.dormann@albin-michel.fr](marie.dormann@albin-michel.fr)[ ](marie.dormann@albin-michel.fr)+33 1 42 79 10 27 [ ] ALBIN MICHEL Founded in 1900, Albin Michel is one of the most important and independent publishing groups in France, with over 6,000 working titles, combining authors of prestige and newly discovered talents. 22 RUE HUYGHENS 75014 PARIS FRANCE NOTES
