Roman thriller pour ados et jeunes adultes : Hallali
Extract
”Fists attached to the cleat of the fixed saloon table, I tried to stand out by straightening up, rearing up, nodding my head, banging against the wall of the central bench where my waist was tied. No one saw me, they continued to joke, to praise the fearless young man, who promised to brave the storm to bring back some fish.
I was terrified. In front of my helplessness and his duplicity, I boiled down and cursed myself. Why had I put myself in the mouth of the wolf? What could I expect from this monster? I continued my trying contortions as if to punish my idiocy. Once again, I tried to make myself heard by the people on the wharf. In vain.
Flexibly, the scavenger jumped aboard. An engine cough, the smell of diesel ...
" It is not possible ! I thought scared, he won't have the audacity? " Yes ! He had it.
Black smoke, a backfire, and we were off. Standing, bar still between his thighs, the perfidious saluted, laughed, joked on the fly with the neighbors of the quay. This concert of mockery, laughter and laughter of all kinds exasperated me. How could anyone be so hypocritical?
A slurry of air entered the cabin through the main opening. I was shivering with cold, pain, fear. "You are naive," the voice of my grandmother's detective echoed in my head.
By going to the port, I had known that I would be playing with fire. I was pretty sure he was the serial killer, but no one wanted to believe me. I had to prove it. Maybe, I was also hoping that I was wrong?
There, I had no more doubts. It was him, no more mistakes… ”

“Lili, The First Woman of Vitruvius” is a fantastic story released in June 2020, where mystery, humor, poetry and philosophy collide and collide. Isabel Lavarec imagined a story of shadows that depart, reincarnate to lead the reader to escape and questioning.
This captivating fantasy novel combines evocations of nature, landscapes, and animals, which take shape in the reader's imagination ... These allusions have familiar connotations (sea, ponds, dunes, oyster park, hut, boat, tourist town) but always with hints of strangeness: places where one can get lost, with unknown names (Abalame).
“Lili, The First Woman of Vitruvius” holds the reader in suspense from the first to the last page. And throughout the story, very current questions are asked: is consciousness a production of the brain or is it extracorporeal? Is free will a reality or a utopia? Is the paranormal a decoy? Is the world only what we see? Can science explain everything?

Un polar avec une double lecture qui fait écho aux préoccupations des jeunes
Pourquoi ne pas changer de regard sur les ados et les aider à considérer leurs aînés autrement ?
L’actuelle pandémie de Covid-19 a bien montré à quel point la stigmatisation et l’incompréhension peuvent revenir au galop : on a pointé du doigt les jeunes qui prenaient leurs distances par rapport aux gestes barrières, on a parlé de confiner uniquement les seniors…
Pourtant, plutôt que de s’opposer, toutes les populations ont tout intérêt à créer du lien, à apprendre à se comprendre et à se parler.
« Les diverses générations ne sont pas forcément ennemies ! Dans “Hallali !”, je suggère aux ados d’autres pistes de réflexion pour leur montrer que nous sommes tous complémentaires. Aide, entre’aide, joies et bonheurs peuvent être partagés. »
Isabel Lavarec
Hallali ! est donc à la fois un thriller passionnant, qui donne le goût de lire aux jeunes lecteurs grâce à une enquête pleine de péripéties, mais aussi une invitation à s’ouvrir aux autres.

Carnet d'enquêtes d'Halinéa

Thriller pour ados : Hallali ! Carnet d'enquêtes d'Halinéa [Éditions Ex Aequo]
Aujourd'hui, je vous présente un thriller pour ados qui m'a agréablement surprise et qui a répondu à quelques-unes de mes attentes.
J'avais lu le résumé il y a quelque temps. Du coup, mon esprit s'est un peu mélangé à la réception du titre. Je pensais que l'histoire était centrée sur le dilemme que vivait l'ado entre : s'échapper d'un bateau en pleine mer ou se confronter avec le tueur en série qui la retenait prisonnière.
En réalité, Halinéa, l'adolescente, est effectivement coincée sur le bateau d'un tueur en série, mais elle va passer son temps à ressasser ce qui l'a amené jusqu'ici. Mais on peut supposer que cette technique lui permet de rester maître de ses émotions vu la situation dans laquelle elle est, et aussi, de comprendre et pouvoir réagir face au tueur.
Après, je me suis vite rendu compte de mon erreur (je ne relis jamais la quatrième avant de me lancer), on rentre très vite dans le sujet. C'est un point fort, les "chapitres" sont assez courts et la lecture très dynamique.
Halinéa est une vraie adolescente qui fonce tête baissée, qui peut parfois être insolente, qui vit intensément ses émotions et pourtant elle est aussi tellement attachante. Mossa, sa grand-mère l'est également. Cette dernière s'occupe de sa petite fille et l'implique dans ses enquêtes (d'autres tomes existent).
Dans celui-ci, il sera question de meurtre en série, d'usurpateur d'identité, de bourreau des cœurs, mais l'amitié et l'amour sont au rendez-vous également.
J'ai beaucoup aimé la relation de la grand-mère avec la jeune fille et le regard qu'elles ont l'une envers l'autre.
Mon avis :
une lecture dynamique et une enquête bien menée avec des personnages aux personnalités bien écrites. Je me suis laissée avoir par le caractère d'Halinéa et quasiment jusqu'au bout je n'ai pas vu le tueur en série arrivé. Une bonne lecture qui m'a bien plu. Enfin une enquête avec pas mal de personnages, mais qui sont liés entre eux, un scénario très intéressant. Un vrai puzzle avec un beau final.
Je n'avais pas prêté attention il me semble, mais la maison d'édition est Vosgiennes ;)
Merci à Isabel pour cette découverte et pour la dédicace.

Troisième volet du Carnet d’enquêtes d’Halinea – Hallali !, d’Isabel Lavarec met son héroïne adolescente aux prises avec un tueur en série. Dans cette histoire où elle joue gros, elle peut compter sur l’appui d’une grand-mère de compétition.
Banalement, cela pourrait commencer par « Halinea part en voilier ». Car d’emblée, la jeune fille se retrouve prisonnière en pleine mer et, par un jeu de flash-backs habiles, Isabel Lavarec fait revivre à son jeune lecteur les péripéties qui ont conduit la jeune fille sur cet esquif, mal entretenu et qui pourrait couler à tout instant. De fait, pour penser à autre chose, se donner du courage et surtout trouver le moyen de se sauver par le biais de failles de l’assassin au cruel rituel, Halinea se force à maîtriser sa frayeur et à revivre la tragique histoire depuis son entrée en scène… Le nouveau roman de l’auteure de polar épouse les méandres de sa mémoire.
L’astuce d’Isabel Lavarec, c’est d’avoir utilisé les codes du polar classique pour un public adolescent : meurtres il y a; meurtres il y a avec un certain sadisme dans le geste; meurtres il y a avec des suspects qui ne sont peut-être pas les bons… Et dans cet imbroglio, Halinea tente de mener sa barque en se méfiant des personnes qui l’entourent et des apparences, quitte à prendre tous les risques… en prime, Hallali ! s’interrogent aussi sur les rapports entre générations à travers les relations tendres, et parfois tendues, mais jamais placées sous le sceau de l’incompréhension, entre Halinea et sa grand-mère. Notamment quand celle-ci tombe amoureuse d’un homme dont le comportement ne semble pas très net. On a alors le sentiment que, pour Halinea, jouer sur la Carte du Tendre ne doit plus avoir lieu quand on a atteint un certain âge. Elle lui lance même à bout d’arguments : « Le comble! Tu en es amoureuse. Tu ne dois plus le revoir ! A ton âge, ce n’est pas sérieux ! »
REPORT THIS AD
Pour autant, et ce qui peut toucher les jeunes lecteurs, cette jeune fille est dotée d’un sacré courage et, même si elle doit affronter un tueur « aussi abominable que Zucco« cette lectrice assidue des Liaisons dangereuses n’est pas du genre à vivre à tempérament. Elle a l’enthousiasme de ses jeunes années.
Évoquant l’air de rien une forme de racisme – avec l’irruption de l’ami gitan de Halinea – Kiéro (Te Quiero ?) qui joue un rôle important dans la dernière partie du roman – cette histoire bien menée joue aussi avec les codes du roman à clé où le mysticisme mène la danse. Avec, au détour d’une page, une phrase nominale qui résume toute l’intrigue : « Dans un demi-sommeil, je divaguai. Tout se mélangeait, meurtres, violences, poursuites dans des sous-sols historiques, David, théâtre, footing, Kiéro, ombre qui filait dans une haie de fleurs. »
Une nouvelle enquête qui ne manque donc pas d’atout pour séduire un jeune lectorat.
