13, Rue Thérèse, by Elena Mauli Shapiro, Headline, RRP£12.99, 288 pagesYou take a quick shufti at this debut novel and you clock its cuteness right away: the title for a start – treize, rue Thérèse; yeah got it; then all those old photos, facsimile letters, the chequered covers of a mysterious box embedded in the text and your bricolage alert is ringing like billy-o.
So you have a browse and you see right away that Elena Mauli Shapiro is having a bit of a lark, scrambling time, setting us up for the Unreliable Narrator who is made to happen upon that box full of stuff – an opening to a bigger mystery.
