BLACK SQUAD

Marseille, August. The Black Squad doesn't take prisoners.
Théo Garnier is twenty-four years old and certain of one thing: Commander Lucas Varese is the best cop in the city. He believes it until the night a seventeen-year-old falls on the A7 highway. Until he watches Varese decide in four minutes to bury the case. Until he takes out his phone and starts filming.
One USB drive. One video. One impossible choice.
While Théo tries to get the evidence to the IGPN - France's internal affairs division - before Varese finds out, the squad is caught in a three-way vise: a relentless Paris investigator determined to dismantle twenty years of corruption, an Albanian crime syndicate moving to retake the northern housing projects by force, and a quiet accountant preparing his disappearance with three million euros in undeclared funds. And someone on the team already knows everything.
The Black Squad doesn't take prisoners. But Varese trained Théo himself.
Black Squad, Book 1. Gritty procedural noir set in Marseille. First novel in a five-book series.
