{"product_id":"the-venice-train-georges-simenon-9780241544228","title":"The Venice Train","description":"'There were some weeks that were painful, nerve-racking. At the office or at home, in the middle of a meal, he would suddenly find his forehead bathed in sweat, a tightness in his chest, and at those times, feeling everyone's eyes on him was unbearable.'\nDuring a chance meeting on the train from Venice to Paris, a stranger asks Justin Calmar to deliver a briefcase for him to an address in Switzerland. Soon this ordinary family man will become hopelessly, fatally, ensnared in a world of guilt, lies and paranoia.\nOriginally published in 1965, shortly after Simenon moved into the new home he had built in Épalinges, Switzerland, this chilling novel is a powerful exploration of the fragility of the human psyche.","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50358546825504,"sku":"9780241544228","price":9.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9780241544228.jpg?v=1780775626","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/the-venice-train-georges-simenon-9780241544228","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
