The secret tomb

<p>When Dorothy, ropedancer and palmist, arrives at the Château de Roborey with her circus, she’s already observed strange excavations at the grounds. Fate reveals a familial connection and drags her and her motley crew of war orphans into a quest for long-lost ancestral treasure, but her new-found nemesis is always close on her trail.</p> <p><a href="https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/maurice-leblanc">Maurice Leblanc</a>, most famous for his <a href="https://standardebooks.org/collections/arsene-lupin">Arsène Lupin</a> stories, here switches to a new protagonist, but fans of his other work will find her strangely recognisable. Indeed, the mystery presented here is later referenced in <i>The Countess of Cagliostro</i> as a puzzle that Lupin did not have time to solve. This book was originally serialised in <i>Le Journal</i> between January and March 1923, and was published in novel form both in French and in this English translation later in the year. It was also later adapted as a French-language made-for-TV movie in 1983.</p>
