Een en al chaos

More about the book

In this gripping debut thriller, a mathematician named James Fenster is assassinated just before a speech at a World Trade Organization meeting. The murder is executed with chilling precision: Fenster's hotel room in Amsterdam is incinerated while the rest of the building remains unharmed. Veteran Interpol agent Henri Poincaré embarks on a high-stakes quest for answers, accompanied by his chain-smoking colleague Serge Laurent. Their investigation uncovers a diverse list of suspects, including the leader of the Indigenous Liberation Front, militants, a hedge fund director, Fenster's ex-fiancée, and a graduate student in mathematics. As Poincaré makes progress in America, he faces a formidable adversary tied to a haunting past involving a genocide case, forcing him back to Europe to confront the unfathomable. Stripped of his confidence and grappling with despair, he begins to see a connection between the two cases, realizing he may be the key to unraveling the mystery. This first installment in the Henri Poincaré series combines a sharp mystery with profound religious themes, appealing to both agnostics and believers alike. Readers who enjoy the works of John Le Carré, Scott Turow, and Dan Brown will be captivated by Rosen's storytelling and the resourceful, haunted protagonist. The novel promises to resonate with a wide audience, showcasing dazzling prose and an unconventional approach to the thriller genre.
