Reviews
Praise for In the Shadow of the Fire "Le Corre brilliant integrates a mystery plot line into a vivid evocation of a lesser-known period in French history in this enthralling novel [giving him] an opportunity to display his gifts at writing tense scenes [ . . . ] Fans of Armand Cabasson won't want to miss this one."--Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) "Gripping...Le Corre captures not only the events of the era, but the mindset, the prejudices, and the blind spots as well."--CrimeReads "This is a powerful novel, evoking the chaos and mundaneness of a military siege, and is recommended for fans of French history or any readers interested in a new perspective on armed conflict."--Historical Novels Society "From beginning to end of this dazzling novel, Le Corre deepens the shadows in his sooty, nocturnal Paris. Here and there, touches of color: the bloody red of the Communards' flag, the incandescence of a fire, the flame of a hurricane lamp. Glimmers of hope flicker and don't go out."--Macha Séry, Le Monde "In a perfectly constructed historical frame, supported by breathless intrigue, Hervé Le Corre offers up a fascinating red and black novel. To be read passionately!"--Sébastien Thomas-Calleja, aVoir-aLire "A true history lesson served by extremely precise writing, In the Shadow of the Fire is an astounding epic in which the reader, constantly confronted with suffering, misery, and violence, is taken above all with the strength of the solidarity and heroism of ordinary people, and the infinite hope of those who believe to the end in the causes they are fighting for."--Hélène Falek, L'Express, Praise for In the Shadow of the Fire "Le Corre brilliant integrates a mystery plot line into a vivid evocation of a lesser-known period in French history in this enthralling novel [giving him] an opportunity to display his gifts at writing tense scenes [ . . . ] Fans of Armand Cabasson won't want to miss this one."--Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) "Gripping...Le Corre captures not only the events of the era, but the mindset, the prejudices, and the blind spots as well."--CrimeReads "From beginning to end of this dazzling novel, Le Corre deepens the shadows in his sooty, nocturnal Paris.

Synopsis
Winner of the French Voices Prize, In the Shadow of the Fire traces the Paris Communards' tragic odyssey, while following a breathless criminal investigation. In 1871, the Paris Commune's "bloody week" sees the savage climax of the clashes between the Communards and the French Armed Forces loyal to Versailles. Amid the shrapnel and the chaos, while the entire west side of Paris is a field of ruins, a photographer fascinated by the suffering of young women takes "suggestive" photos to sell to a particular clientele. Then young women begin disappearing, and when Caroline, a seamstress who volunteers at a first aid station, is counted among the missing, her fianc Nicolas, a member of the Commune's National Guard, and Communal security officer Antoine set off independently in search of her. Their race against the clock to find her takes them through the shell-shocked streets of Paris, and introduces them to a cast of fascinating characters., Winner of the French Voices Prize, In the Shadow of the Fire traces the Paris Communards' tragic odyssey, while following a breathless criminal investigation.
