Illusion. Shutam M.

When you want to coolly change your life, the right path is to throw everything and go to the wilderness, so welcome to the Val-Carios ski resort, where only a few maintenance staff remains for the summer. Wildlife, not a soul for many kilometers around - what could be more healing for the broken heart of the south, who had just survived a heavy parting? But from the very first days, Yugo begins to notice that something was wrong. On the slope of the resort, the ominous estate looms, and its owner never appears to the eyes.

South visit terrible visions, which has never happened to him before. Without a trace, his colleague disappears. Something unknown, but clearly creepy lurks in the forest. Nobody except the south, all this seems to be worried. Does he go crazy? Did he accidentally hit the very heart of the conspiracy? Or on the set of "Shining"? Or maybe this is a terrible trick? But who is the magician here, who is the simple -minded viewer - and who is the victim?

Maxim Shutam is the author of detective thrillers and nuars, which diverge of multimillion -dollar circulations in France and became bestsellers in two dozen countries. Shattam studied modern literature and criminology, was initially inspired by Stephen King and Thomas Harris, but in the end he became a figure in French detective literature, which was not inferior to Jean-Cristofu Grazhe and Franc Tilla. His new thriller “Illusion” gradually and inevitably leads the reader further into a hopeless maze, where monsters and more and more traps lurk around every angle, and there may not be access to the light.
