Alice suddenly has the vision of a dead body swaddled in a shroud and wakes up in the middle of an operation.

Manon Rizzoli was a teenager without history, friendly leader of a cheerleading team. Nothing that explains why his body is found on the tennis court of the sports complex run by his father. Until we found in a technical room a prayer room and a photo of her wearing a veil: Manon had converted to Islam. Alice returns to see her surgeon: the visions multiply, she can no longer sleep.

Alice followed Chahine's advice, only hypnosis can help her to trace her memories and discover who is this dead man who comes to haunt her...
Carl Mattéi suffocated to death, his face covered with a plastic bag in the basement of the hotel where he worked. For many, he was a model employee. But the first findings of the coroner seriously shake up the investigation. Carl wore a chest belt to hide... a woman's breast. He was transsexual and didn't want it to be known... Alice found a photo of herself as a child with her parents in a house she has no memory of. One thing is certain, it was just before his mother died. Marquand is right: it is high time she spoke to her father.
Noah alerts the police after seeing the body of a woman on the banks of the Seine. But the victim is not dead and the coroner manages to resuscitate him in extremis.
