The Enigma of Room 622

The Enigma of Room 622

Our Review

This is a special recommendation for those who enjoy detective stories. It's a very well-written novel, with an engaging plot that keeps you intrigued until the very last page. Additionally, it plays with fun elements such as Joël Dicker himself appearing as a protagonist. Another thing we really like is that it has short chapters, ideal for avid readers who read anywhere.

This passionate yet curious thriller is set against the backdrop of a crime to solve: what happened in room 622 of a hotel in the Swiss Alps? A story of love, power, betrayal, and envy perfect for lovers of novels that leave you breathless.

It is also a tribute to an editor very dear to the author. (If you want to know more, read this article).
