About this book

A young stranger pauses among Munich's old houses as evening empties the streets and an unexpected gathering captures his attention. Beggars form an orderly line, waiting for a commanding elderly woman who directs them before noticing their observer. This opening gives Alexandre Dumas's novel a setting of architectural detail, concealed authority and uneasy encounters between different levels of city life.

Private tensions lead to carefully arranged deception. Césarine prepares to leave her husband for a viscount, while a secret note passes through Major Von Sendlingen and is sent to M. Clemenceau. Meanwhile, a household studio has become a workshop filled with tools and experimental apparatus. The book combines a love story with intrigue and an interest in invention.
