Wife. Mother. Daughter. Killer. 'You can't stop reading, even as
you want to look away' New York Times Life is going well for Marie.
She and her husband, Laurent, live a comfortable life in a large
apartment in the eleventh arrondissement in Paris. Laurent has a
good job at a big law firm and Marie enjoys her work at a bank,
where she feels appreciated by her clients and colleagues.
Comfortable and secure, and ready for family life, the couple begin
to try for a baby. But not long afterwards Marie experiences a
shocking encounter which threatens to derail their plans
completely, and her world slowly starts to fall apart. Less than
two years later, the family's apartment is cordoned off by police
tape as forensic officers examine a horrific scene in the family
apartment. Three bodies around a dining table. Marie, Laurent and
their little toddler, Thomas, in his high chair. All three of them
have been poisoned by Marie. This Little Family is a dark and
furiously compelling novel about women, power and control, from a
bright young star in French literature.
