L'autore di questo audiolibro, Maurice Leblanc, ha scritto la fortunata serie di Arsenio Lupin, ma in questo ascolto il ladro gentiluomo fa solo una breve comparsa, mentre la trama si sviluppa autonomamente, tra suggestioni gotiche, superstizioni, fantasmi del passato che perseguitano l'eroina, Veronica, e suo figlio Francesco. Fino alla fine un susseguirsi di colpi di scena, e non manca il consueto gusto umoristico dell'autore. Cornice musicale dello sceneggiato francese del 1979.
