THE FIRST NOVEL
Hôtel Ponchette
Jean-Baptiste Poquelin, known as Poq, dreams of turning his house on the Ponchettes into a hotel. To finance it, he sells it as a life annuity. A serious mistake.
The buyers are professional fraudsters. When they discover that their seller stubbornly refuses to die, they decide to give him a little help. A hilarious and unpredictable adventure in the heart of Nice — and far beyond.
A witty adventure comedy, somewhere between Louis de Funès and Molière.
