Summary: "La tentatrice" by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the lives of Marquis de Torrebianca, his extravagant wife Hélène, and their financial struggles amidst a world of social glitter.

The opening of the novel introduces the Marquis de Torrebianca, who grapples with the weight of financial troubles while trying to maintain an air of sophistication and luxury due to Hélène's lavish lifestyle.
