About the book: 1990 / The exciting, almost detective stories of three small but capacious novels keep the reader in suspense until the end, until the last line. These novels are historical in genre, but history, while giving the narrative a certain authenticity, serves only as a background for a skillfully woven intrigue. Lajesse's heroes are courageous and charming people, and following the development of their characters, contradictory and not without flaws, is not only interesting, but also instructive.
