Eight-bit aliens are invading the walls of Paris… and lifeless bodies are popping up just beneath these tile mosaics!

Paris, 3 A.M.: the streets are empty. An old Renault rolls up, Orbi at the wheel. After all, Invader is getting ready. Covering the capital's walls are more than 1,000 aliens pieced together from tile to resembled the pixellated aliens from the famous Atari video game, and every day, there are more "invasions." Orbi and 16-year-old Esther are seasoned "hunters": fans of the street artist behind it all. They set out in the early morning to find the latest tile mosaics. But little does Esther know that the body of a young woman has just been found beneath one of them. What dangers lie in store for the hunters?
A deep dive into the Paris of street art, this thriller gives readers a glimpse of a Paris they've never seen before.
