On the island of beauty, the story of a family united for better and for worse... Since the death of the patriarch Ettore Bartoli, it is his wife Lisandra who has taken over the reins of the Hôtel Bleu Azur , one of the jewels of the Corsican hotel industry. Supported by two of her four children, Giulia and Ange - the latter being the designated successor to one day take over the famous hotel on the flamboyant Cap Corse - Lisandra has never lacked the energy to make the former small inn of the Grand father of Ettore, until obtaining, over the years, his fourth star. But working as a family is sometimes paradoxically a more difficult challenge than other businesses. While trying to leave as many initiatives as possible to her children, respecting their ideas of change, improvement, modernization of the accommodation conditions of the customers, sometimes even going so far as to agree with the youth, Lisandra, who is aware of aging, yet is not ready to fade away. And then, beyond the stewardship of the hotel and the estate, and the difficulties of daily life - from the management of staff and egos, to that of the demanding and even capricious clientele, through the problems linked to the recent health crisis - there are everyone's personal worries. Giulia who is raising her 10-year-old son Matteo alone, Ange who is engaged to Inès, the beautiful Spaniard who does not fit into the very closed Bartoli clan, Lucca the elder brother, a brilliant young lawyer who has everything to be happy, if it is only he and his wife cannot manage to have the child that is missing from their happiness... and that adoption is not an option for Lucca. And finally Orso, the third Bartoli son. Orso whose borderline temperament worries and mobilizes the family, Orso who must be watched at all times like milk on the fire... .Des vies sont en danger. Une reporter d'investigation va s'infiltrer en terrain ennemi. Le temps est compté. Le Groupe 9, plus uni que jamais, repart en mission. L'avenir de tout un peuple est en jeu. De Londres à Kyïv, de Vilnius à Rome, un roman d'aventures et d'espionnage au suspense trépidant, une histoire qui interpelle et invite à réfléchir sur le monde qui nous entoure.
