This Monday morning, the RTS unveiled the first unpublished adventures of a formidable detective. Skip the Sherlocks, Poirot and Columbo, make way for… Maëlys, 10 years old, messy hair and unparalleled flair. Undeniable popularity above all, for this heroine of a series of French-speaking books, a hit in the youth department since its launch in 2013: Les Maëlys investigations. Stories mixing puzzles and thrills, set in local settings, imagined by author Christine Pompeï and illustrator Raphaëlle Barbanègre. And who, 27 volumes later, sets out to conquer the small screen.
