Surprise journey is also a hymn to life and openness to others, because even if the characters look more like a band of broken arms than ordinary individuals, they nonetheless remain attached and deliver a part of themselves during this journey.
Doctor in public law, Ellen Lemesle is the director of a children’s home. “I had a lot of fun writing this story. I often laughed imagining the adventures that our anti-heroes were going to have. »
Passionate about writing and scuba diving, she is about to quit her job to devote herself to her passions.

When everything goes wrong, can things get even worse? Poor Marianne!
The job of her dreams, in this charming seaside town, will not be for her. Results of the races: a calamitous job interview, with a despicable guy, and low morale. Dejected, she joins the meeting point of the carpool, impatient to return home and forget this excruciating experience.
And yet, she does not suspect that the day has only just begun. She will fall on a band of broken arms, all crazier than each other, who will make her live a series of incredible adventures. Between laughter and tears, Marianne will have to adapt to her traveling companions, including those on all fours…
An explosive comedy!
