THE CRIMSON RIVERS

I want to talk about a novel of Jean Christophe Grange who is French writer. I read his all books and all of them are really wonderful. After I have read his this book , I started to read only this man.Most of Grange's novels are made such a film but these films are really terrible because they were changed . This novel was also made for a film.  
In novel, there is a policeman whose name is Pierre Niemans and he is studying on an investigation. He is actually quite old but he is trying to do his job better. There is a homicide . One man was killed by torture. A murder killed him by cutting him slowly and hollowing his eyes out but who did and why did? This is not known thing which is wanted to learn. Nıemans is assigned for this and he goes to place where the crime happened.Nıemans learns that a victim was working in a library and he had a wife. He is found in between rocks. Nıemans meets one another police who is working for the same problem.At first, he resents why he is also sent for investigation but then he loves him so much and they decide to work together. Nıemans wants to be acquainted a women who saw the body of victim between rocks and he is acquainted finally. He asks her many questions and gets answers.He tells other police to go handicapped school which is for blinds.Nıemans knows that there are many dogs for children and he afraids from dogs :) so he sends the other police there. After that he goes to victim's house to ask wife of victim some questions . He is aware of walls colour which is some strange and asks her for this . This question makes her harrassing and cannot answer it logically . Niemans sees that there are many shadows on her body but he doesn't ask. He calls his collegue but he doesn't answer the phone. He is worried about him therefore he goes to that school even though he afraids. He sees that the man who is principle of school is above on roof and died. He runs there to look his friend and finds him in bath which is abound with acid . It is late to rescue him and he goes to roof to look for principle and sees that he confronted with the same torture and died. He losses his friend and stays alone. There is another police whose name is Karim and while these are happening, novel sometimes mentions about him also but I couldn't remember his story now because I read this book about five or six years ago. Anyway , these men will meet and study together . They will find the murder. After I learnt the murder , I was shocking because it was really exciting and the reasons are quite logical to kill but the methods about torturing are horrible . I recommend you to read this novel also. I think you will find it wonderful.
