Christmas has arrived and, with it, the perfect opportunity for Julien to travel to his hometown in order to spend the holidays with his closest relatives.
At first, everything seems perfect: Julien has booked his ticket well in advance, managed to catch the train at just the right time, and is also aware that he will have more than a week of freedom before returning to his job in Lyon.
But what would happen if, upon entering his compartment, he came face to face with the rival journalist who has been criticizing his writings for four years? And what if, due to an unexpected storm, the two of them found themselves trapped in a strange town until the tempest subsides and transportation resumes?
Francis hadn’t planned for this to be his dream holiday, seeing Christmas with his friends more as a social obligation than anything else. But nothing had prepared him to run into the poet with whom he had been trading barbs for years.
Now, the two of them will have to find a way to reach a truce—or at the very least, avoid committing mutual murder.
