The Woman of Mystery

by Maurice Leblanc

On the eve of World War I, Paul Delroze is haunted by a chilling memory from his childhood. During a trip with his father through the French countryside, they encountered a gathering of mysterious people who spoke German. The leader of the group, a coldhearted man with a striking resemblance to the Kaiser, sent Paul's father and son away, but not before a woman from the group approached Paul's father and killed him in cold blood. Miraculously, Paul escaped with his life, but the memory of his father's murder has never left him.
