Madagascar, October 2013, on the tourist island of Nosy Be.
A missing child, a contested presidential election, nightclubs full of young prostitutes on the prowl, a beautiful Sakalave woman with a changing identity who bears a striking resemblance to Whitney Houston, and wild rumors swirling around organ trafficking and pedophilia. In this lost paradise plagued by poverty and corruption, tempers flare with every swig of homemade rum.
In the midst of this powder keg, two Vazahas discover, with the utmost carefree attitude, the beauty of the archipelago and dream of settling permanently in what they believe to be a lost paradise. After a series of failures, they dream of a new start, a new life. But their stay quickly turns into a nightmare... In this two-voice novel, Franck Poupart tries to understand this strange island called Madagascar. Through the eyes of a vahaza and a bar girl, he retraces the genesis of one of the most horrific crimes of the last thirty years, a lynching that made headlines and took us back to ancient times reminiscent of prehistory.
