La pâle Pauline croise la route du narrateur en évitant son regard. La mort semble prête à l’emporter. Qui est-elle? Que lui est-il arrivé? Quel secret cache-t-elle? Trois narrateurs vont se succéder pour retracer sa tragique histoire. Dans cette oeuvre romantique, qui constitue l’un de ses premiers romans, Alexandre Dumas s’inspire des ‘romans gothiques’ : scènes nocturnes, lieux effrayants, bâtiments en ruine, château traversé de passages secrets, terribles brigands, morts tragiques et pauvre héroïne sacrifiée.
