Storyline Murder in the Building (2026)

Misanthropic novelist François crafts captivating crime stories—often described as “Agatha Christie meets The Scarlet Pimpernel”—but beyond the adventurous worlds of his Marquis la Rose series, his own life is surprisingly dull. His partner, Colette, a professor at the Sorbonne and a renowned Hitchcock expert, grows weary of François lounging around their apartment in his pajamas and longs for the thrill and glamour of the classic films she teaches her students. When Colette begins to suspect their flamboyant actor neighbor of murdering his wife, their ordinary routine is shattered—bringing unexpected excitement into their otherwise stagnant relationship and turning their quiet lives upside down.
