Le sentier des absents

A quiet mountain village is shaken when a missing-person case unsettles generations of families who carry quiet secrets beneath their routines. A steadfast detective returns to the valley, drawn by a clue that echoes through old photographs and remembered voices. As he follows a tangled thread of loyalties, memories, and unspoken grief, he uncovers how a single absence can reshape the bonds that hold a community together. Through misty trails, dim inns, and sunlit switchbacks, the investigation becomes a meditation on memory, guilt, and the quiet resilience required to face what time has hidden in plain sight.
