Pas officiellement, en tout cas.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La personne qui \u00e9crit sous ce nom, elle, existe bel et bien \u2014 m\u00eame si l\u2019on peut se demander si c\u2019est une am\u00e9lioration. Elle vit quelque part entre la r\u00e9alit\u00e9 et le roman noir, ce qui explique beaucoup de choses sur la s\u00e9rie Lettres Mortes.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>QUI EST MARCUS QUINN ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Un pseudonyme pour quelqu&#8217;un qui a pass\u00e9 bien trop d&#8217;ann\u00e9es \u00e0 lire des thrillers et des romans policiers avant de se dire : \u00ab Et si j&#8217;essayais d&#8217;\u00e9crire une s\u00e9rie noire ? \u00bb Il s&#8217;av\u00e8re qu&#8217;\u00e9crire sept livres sur des r\u00e9seaux de corruption est nettement plus difficile que de les lire, mais nous voil\u00e0.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quand il n&#8217;\u00e9crit pas sur la d\u00e9cadence institutionnelle et les journalistes qui refusent de l\u00e2cher l&#8217;affaire, on peut trouver Marcus :<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u00c0 v\u00e9lo, dans des endroits qu&#8217;aucun guide touristique ne mentionne<\/li>\n\n<li>En train de lire des bandes dessin\u00e9es r\u00e9solument pas noires (l&#8217;\u00e9quilibre, c&#8217;est important)<\/li>\n\n<li>\u00c0 suivre le sport avec la m\u00eame attention obsessionnelle au d\u00e9tail que celle qu&#8217;il met \u00e0 construire une enqu\u00eate criminelle<\/li>\n\n<li>En voyage dans des villes plus belles sous la pluie<\/li>\n\n<li>En g\u00e9n\u00e9ral, en train d&#8217;\u00e9viter les vraies archives (\u00e7a, c&#8217;est le travail d&#8217;\u00c9milie)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>L&#8217;\u00c9CRITURE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La s\u00e9rie Lettres Mortes est la premi\u00e8re v\u00e9ritable incursion de Marcus dans le roman. Les sept livres sont d\u00e9sormais disponibles en anglais et en italien, et l\u2019\u00e9dition fran\u00e7aise para\u00eet tome apr\u00e8s tome. Pas mal, pour une aventure n\u00e9e de plans, de notes gorg\u00e9es de caf\u00e9ine et de bonnes intentions.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cela dit, un peu d\u2019indulgence envers Marcus reste la bienvenue. Les auteurs d\u00e9butants sont comme les enqu\u00eateurs d\u00e9butants : ils commettent des erreurs, ratent des indices \u00e9vidents, et tombent parfois sur quelque chose de valable par accident.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">L&#8217;objectif est simple : \u00e9crire un noir qui sonne juste. Une corruption qui fonctionne comme elle fonctionne r\u00e9ellement. Des personnages qui portent leurs blessures sans devenir des caricatures. Sept livres qui racontent chacun une histoire compl\u00e8te tout en construisant quelque chose de plus vaste.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aux lecteurs de dire si le pari est tenu. Mais \u00c9milie Vidal n&#8217;abandonne jamais, et Marcus Quinn non plus.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>POURQUOI LE NOIR ET LES THRILLERS ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Parce que le monde repose sur des r\u00e9seaux de protection, et qu\u2019il faut bien que quelqu\u2019un en parle. Parce que le noir est le seul genre assez honn\u00eate pour admettre que la justice est conditionnelle et que le pouvoir se prot\u00e8ge lui-m\u00eame. Parce que les gens bien font des choix terribles, que les m\u00e9chants ont parfois des motivations raisonnables, et que rien n&#8217;est jamais aussi simple qu&#8217;il le devrait.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Et puis, \u00e9crire des thrillers, c\u2019est amusant. M\u00eame quand \u00e7a ne l\u2019est pas du tout.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CONTACT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pour toute question, correction ou r\u00e9clamation concernant des incoh\u00e9rences dans l\u2019intrigue, ou pour rester inform\u00e9 des prochains livres :<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/marcusquinnbooks\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marcus Quinn sur Instagram<\/a><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/marcusquinnbooks.bsky.social\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marcus Quinn sur BlueSky<\/a><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=61585218178583\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marcus Quinn sur Facebook<\/a><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/author\/show\/67163419.Marcus_Quinn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marcus Quinn sur Goodreads (page auteur)<\/a><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"http:\/\/amazon.com\/author\/marcusquinnbooks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Marcus Quinn sur Amazon (page auteur)<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pour toute demande professionnelle :<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Non.
