14.99 €
The most unusual novel of the maestro of the French detective. Michel Bussy makes an attempt to investigate the death of a man who has become a symbol of France - Antoine de St. Exupery, and he does it in the usual form of play. Nevan, who fifteen years ago received a flight certificate and since then has never once taken to the skies, and the detective trainee Andi receive an unexpected offer: to investigate the mysterious death of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, which occurred several decades ago. And at the same time they want to get to the bottom of another equally mysterious death - the hero of the famous tale of St. Exupery. In search of an answer to the question of how the writer died and how the Little Prince died (and did they both really die?), Nevan and Andi set off on a journey to meet six characters, members of the "Club 612" - almost like the Little Prince, only instead of six asteroids they will visit six islands - and each of the six will share with them their version, and each of the versions will be convincing in its own way, and the denouement, of course, completely unexpected. The great fairy tale The Little Prince celebrates 80 years this year since its first French edition. The most translated work of fiction in the world, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's philosophical story has now been translated into 318 languages. In his new book, Michel Bussy examines the hypotheses of the great French writer's demise, looking for motives and those who may be responsible for his death. Since his teenage years Bussy was fascinated by the mystery of Saint-Exupéry and his brilliant tale, he was always convinced that the author's death was linked to the death of the Little Prince. Michel Bussi donated his entire royalties from this book to the Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Foundation, which funds educational and environmental projects. The philosophical and literary detective "Code 612" is first of all a tribute to the "Little Prince" and his creator, the book invites everyone to dive once again into the wonderful fairy tale and try to find the secret message that Antoine de Saint-Exupéry left before he died in the skies over the Mediterranean Sea.
