Die spektakulären Salzgärten auf der Guérande-Halbinsel. Der Veilchenduft des Fleur de Sel in der Erntezeit, von dem die alten Salzbauern erzählen, er erzeuge bisweilen Hirngespinste. Das glaubt auch Kommissar Dupin, als er in den Salinen aus heiterem Himmel angegriffen wird. Eigentlich war er froh, dem leidigen Papierkram zu entkommen und einen Ausflug ins "Weiße Land" zwischen tosendem Atlantik und idyllischen Flüssen zu unternehmen. Doch als er sich dort für Lilou Breval, eine befreundete Journalistin, nach mysteriösen Fässern umsieht, gerät er unversehens unter Beschuss.

How did a balloonist circumnavigate the earth without fuel? How did an inventor design a device that creates electrical power from human footsteps? How did the WHO figure out how to treat and reduce the transmission of Ebola? They all used alien thinking.

The world is not what we think it is. The individuals whose experiences you are about to hear know that only too well, since nothing in their lives had prepared them for their encounters with things that are not supposed to happen - but did! Events like these remain hidden because those they happen to are afraid to speak out of a natural reluctance to have their sincerity or sanity questioned. Societies define their own realities and those who challenge them do so at their own peril. The moral seems to be that where these kinds of events are concerned, ignorance is the best policy.

God's promises and instructions contain just what you need.

These are the famous opening words of a treatise that has stirred vigorous debate ever since its first publication in 1762. Rejecting the view that anyone has a natural right to wield authority over others, Rousseau argues instead for a pact, or 'social contract', that should exist between all the citizens of a state and that should be the source of sovereign power.

Devotion to the Sacred Heart is perhaps the most widely practiced of all Catholic devotions, where the heart of Jesus is seen as a symbol of "God's endless and fervent love for all." Evidence of such devotion dates to the 11th and 12th centuries in a number of Benedictine or Cistercian monasteries. It was also widely advocated by the well-known saints Bonaventure (d. 1274) and Gertrude (d. 1302).
