The Club de Lecture will discuss Tension extrême by Sylvain Forge.
Cyber attacks are paralysing the Nantes Criminal Investigation Department, infiltrating police officers' private lives and encircling a
city where the slightest connected object can become a deadly weapon. As the victims pile up, a young police commissioner just out of school
and her deputy join forces to confront an invisible enemy. All the specialist police forces will be mobilised to neutralise the new threat
posed by science's complicity in crime.

The Club de Lecture will discuss La faiseuse d'étoiles by Mélissa Da Costa.
"You taught me an important lesson today. I thought I was doing the right thing, but you're right. We always look for happiness
far from home. We think it's to be found in the exotic, in different landscapes, new scents, imposing buildings. That's not always
true, is it? Sometimes happiness is just the three of us sitting on a hill".
In this moving story, Mélissa Da Costa proves once again that imagination knows no bounds, and that there is no greater power than love
to heal the deepest wounds.

The Club de Lecture will discuss Pleine terre by Corinne Royer.
Inspired by a tragic true story, this novel, which is as psychological as it is political, highlights the confiscated hopes and fragility of
farmers in the face of the aberrations of a system that is degrading our relationship with living things. With her ardent and compassionate
tone, Corinne Royer bears witness to the collapse of the farming world and questions the chaos of our contemporary societies, which seem
deaf to the tragedy unfolding in the countryside.
