More about the book

Set in late autumn 1889, the story revolves around the mysterious death of an unidentified woman found by the Seine River in Paris. Displayed at the city morgue, her haunting beauty captivates onlookers but fails to draw a claimant. As the body awaits disposition, a mold is created of her face, resulting in a mask that evolves into a renowned cult artifact of the 20th century, highlighting themes of mortality, anonymity, and the allure of the macabre.
