Théophraste Longuet, who unexpectedly discovers that he may have been a notorious criminal known as Cartouche in a past life. This revelation sets off a chain of events intertwined with mystery and supernatural elements as Longuet grapples with his identity and the legacies of his past. At the start of the narrative, readers are introduced to Théophraste Longuet, a seemingly ordinary man who receives a locked oaken chest from the executor of his deceased friend, M. Théophraste Longuet. The chest contains memoirs and documents linking Longuet to the infamous criminal Cartouche. As he examines the papers, Longuet experiences bizarre episodes that suggest a connection to his past life.
