A Conversation on Thrillers and the Writing Process
The bookstore Un livre à soi will host the FIKA(S) Festival and the two authors for an intimate conversation. During this event, we will explore various themes that unveil the secrets of the authors and the behind-the-scenes of creating these captivating stories.
