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.
