| Summary | "The Secret of Sarek" by Maurice Leblanc is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Véronique d'Hergemont, a woman with a troubled past, who finds herself entangled in a web of mystery and danger upon discovering her own initials inscribed on a deserted cabin door in Brittany. This discovery reignites painful memories and leads her to confront a series of shocking revelations regarding her family, a lost son, and the malevolent forces lurking in her past. At the start of the narrative, Véronique journeys to Brittany, seeking answers related to a mysterious letter she received about the kidnapping of her child and the fate of her estranged husband, Alexis Vorski. Her quest takes a dark turn when she discovers a dead body in a cabin, related to the sinister history surrounding her family. Compelled to uncover the truth about the cryptic clues and horrific drawings she finds, including one depicting four crucified women, Véronique's investigations lead her to an island steeped in horror and legend, where the destinies of those she loves seem intertwined with tragic fate. As she grapples with the implications of her discovery, the narrative sets the stage for a suspenseful confrontation with deeper, darker truths. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
