L'AUTEUR Jacques Grieu An engineer by training,
Jacques Grieu , a Norman
from
Le Havre, is an arts amateur.
He always wrote narratives and
poems, on his pupil's exercise
books, on paper tablecloths in
restaurants or articles in
magazines. It was already the
case at 16, when he was a
resident scholar in the
Chamonix valley. Then later,
when he was a mountain
infantryman.
But it is offshore, while
sailing during numerous
regatta throughout Europe,
that he wanted to satisfy his
competitive spirit. And, more
calmly, he cruises between
Belle-Ile and the Golfe du
Morbihan for the last 50 years.
He nevertheless had to wait
for retirement to find the
time to publish … The father
of 3 children and 8 times
grandfather, he continues to
practice ski with his family.
He is also an amateur of golf,
chess and painting.

Entre Baie de Seine et Golfe du Morbihan, les péripéties d’une étrange enquête qui cherche à faire parler les tombes. Portrait d'une femme d'exception.Un roman d'aventure? d'atmosphère? de mœurs?policier? Au lecteur de trancher.
In the 1980s, the P.A.N.E.L, a merry group of teenagers in the 1980s, is living excitng adventures under the unconscious but determinating influence of Nathalie, the gorgeous muse of the group. As years go by, they grow up and become adults. No ordeal, whether death, jealousy, robberies, blackmail, threats or even murders, which life inflicts on them, and which are gradually disclosed to the reader, will shake out the unfailing solidarity they committed themselves to when they were young. But how could they protect Nathalie from her enemies ? and maybe from herself ? This is to become their permanent worry. The background of an ambivalent brother-sister relationship throughout the story may remind the the reader of that of some historical couples, the plot taking place between le Havre and Vannes, for a weird police investigation strangely links Normandy to Brittany. If standard moral ethics sometimes happen not to get their share, good intentions do remain.. Yet, does the means always justify the end ?
