Reseña del editor
In a prehistoric underwater cavern off the coast of Marseilles are the first human engravings known to man. Among them is a crude drawing of a three-fingered hand, which has long puzzled archaeologists. Is it a hunting signal? A mystic sign invoking the spirits? Or is it, as many believe, evidence of ritual amputation in a Shamanistic world? The one who names himself 'The Hunter' apparently believes the latter. Driven by strange voices to kill and mutilate, he severs the body parts of his victims - and always signs his horrific crimes with a drawing of a three-fingered hand. The identity of this brutal killer is unfathomable, but Michel de Palma, of the Marseilles murder squad, has never lost a case, and he is not going to start now.De Palma heads to the University to investigate, but the clique of pre-history professors he encounters are as secretive as the cave-drawing itself. Slowly and alone, de Palma unravels a mystery that dates back to the Ice Age - and comes closer to discovering the killer's identity. But the academic community protect their own, and de Palma is no longer welcome in their circle...
Contraportada
“Certain novels stand out and this is one of them…Bonnot will make you shiver” La Provence In an underwater cavern off the coast west of Marseille are the first human engravings known to man. Among them is a crude drawing of a three-fingered hand, which has long puzzled archaeologists. Is it, as many believe, evidence of a ritual mutilation in a Shamanistic world? “The Hunter” certainly believes so. Driven by inhuman voices to maim and kill, he severs the body parts of his victims - and signs his savagery with the print of a three-fingered hand. The identity of this monster is unfathomable, but Commandant Michel de Palma, of the Marseille murder squad, has devoted himself to the investigation. Psychotic murders are his speciality - and he has yet to lose a case.
