THE BUILDING ON CAVENDISH STREET

Rights holder: Les Escales
Original Language: French

L’Immeuble de la Rue Cavendish is a 6-book series launching Les Escales’ series. These first two books are being published in April 2022 with a first print-run of 10 000 copies each.

Each novel is narrated from the point-of-view of one of the residents of this typically Parisian apartment building in the neighborhood of the Parc Buttes-Chaumont. The main character of one book becomes a secondary character in the next. Between the new residents moving in, those who disappear from one day to the next, those who fall in love and those who, well, you’ll have to read to find out. One things for sure, there’s always something exciting happening inside...

After a painful breakup, Margaux, 20s, moves into an apartment that her Uncle lends her on rue Cavendish. Near Buttes-Chaumont, the building is always bustling, between the unpleasant concierge who insists on being called Madame Nathalie, the crazy old man on the 2nd floor and the intolerable kid on the 4th, Margaux hardly finds the time to indulge in the horror movies she loves so much.

Thankfully, she can count on her neighbors: Victoire, Charlotte and Markus are always there for her over a round of drinks. Especially after Margaux meets the hot neighbor who lives across the street.

But things get complicated when worrying noises come from the apartment upstairs and Margaux decides to meddle.

Caroline Kant used to live on Rue Cavendish for a long time. She has since left the city and spends her time between writing and other diverse jobs.
