the essential Bernard Cazeaux belongs to the four authors selected by the police to participate in the Prix de l’Embouchure 2023.
Installed in Moissac since his retirement, Bernard Cazeaux had a multiple life where he chained professional experiences before resuming his studies and ending his career as a teacher in Cugnaux, then in Ozenne and Fermat high schools. This Stade Toulousain fan has been writing “for 30 years. My second wife pushed me to publish. First at the author’s expense then with a publisher”.
With Toulouse in red and black, a nod to his favorite club, “but also to blood and death”, Bernard Cazeaux leads his readers in the footsteps of Islamist terrorists. “Of course the Montauban and Toulouse attacks in 2012 inspired me, but it is above all the link between these terrorists and crime that serves as the framework for this thriller”, confides the author who, for a time, taught in center of detention. “I met a lot of life-sentenced prisoners. This allowed me to identify their personality, their character”, specifies this holder of a DEA “police and security”.
