Un bébé décédé. Une mère suspectée. Aline pensait que la naissance de son fils serait le point de départ d'une vie nouvelle, une chance de créer la famille aimante et stable qu'elle n'a jamais eue. Mais dès les premiers jours, la maternité prend un tournant chaotique, bien loin de l'idéal espéré. Malgré l’épuisement, Aline s’efforce de ne pas sombrer. Jusqu’au jour où le pire se produit : son bébé de moins de trois mois meurt. Convoquée au commissariat comme simple témoin, elle se retrouve brusquement placée en garde à vue. Elle est soupçonnée d’avoir secoué son fils. Jusqu’à le tuer. Comment en est-elle arrivée là ? Qui est réellement responsable ? Et que reste-t-il quand le doute s’immisce au cœur de tout ? Inspiré d’une histoire vraie, ce drame familial est le récit déchirant de la chute d’une mère. Une plongée vertigineuse dans les profondeurs de la douleur, de la suspicion et de la culpabilité.

Author Growth Pro’s working relationship with Jeanne Yliss is conducted in French, and this campaign was designed around the book’s French-language audience. The promotional approach was tailored to readers interested in French-language psychological drama, contemporary fiction, and stories inspired by real-life experiences, and to relevant French-speaking reader communities.

The author wanted the book to reach beyond her existing readership and connect with new readers. At the beginning of the campaign, the book had approximately 167 Amazon global ratings, according to the client’s recollection.

Author Growth Pro identified an opportunity to position the book for readers of psychological drama, contemporary fiction, and emotionally driven stories inspired by real-life experiences.

The campaign combined targeted reader outreach, relevant book-club opportunity identification, Amazon page and metadata optimization, Goodreads visibility support, and ongoing performance monitoring.

Rather than treating promotion as a one-time announcement, Author Growth Pro continued working to maintain the book’s visibility and connect it with readers whose interests align with its subject matter.
