Mummy is Wrong

Book Review

«Mummy is Wrong» by Michel Bussi is a subtle, multilayered psychological drama, artfully disguised as a gripping detective story. The author skillfully plays with the reader’s perception, immersing them in the world of six-year-old Malone, whose innocent conviction that his mother is not his real mother becomes the starting point for a puzzle where reality and fantasy are tightly intertwined. Bussi masterfully builds suspense, making the reader question the obvious and constantly rethink their assumptions. Critics praise his meticulous attention to detail, the psychological authenticity of the characters, and the atmosphere of anxious uncertainty that permeates the novel. Particularly impressive is the author’s ability to combine a thrilling plot with deep emotional resonance, turning a story about childhood fear and adult mistrust into a meditation on memory, identity, and the fragility of family bonds. «Mummy is Wrong» is not just a detective novel, but an exquisite literary tapestry in which every stroke is filled with meaning and haunting beauty.
