The Maze Girl - Ghyoom Miso

The novel "Maze Girl" is one of Guillaume Musso's most thrilling and exciting novels. It begins with a captivating cinematic scene: the famous Italian heiress Oriana di Pietro lying on the deck of the "Luna Blue" boat, enjoying the rays of the sun. After long months of losing hope and feeling that the end is near, things finally start to turn in her favor, promising her a better tomorrow. But this moment of calm does not last, as the scene suddenly turns into a nightmare. Within minutes, Oriana is subjected to a violent attack that ends with her mysterious death. Thus begins a complex investigation led by detective Justine, who faces personal and professional challenges in her quest to uncover the killer, amidst a web of intertwined and misleading narratives. Who killed Oriana di Pietro? Could it be her husband Adrian, the mysterious and charming pianist? Or perhaps Adele, her first friend and later enemy? Both tell the truth, but their truths have nothing to do with reality. With his usual brilliance, Musso weaves a tightly crafted plot that keeps the reader in suspense until the very last line.
