Baron Trigault's Vengeance
Sequel to The Count's Millions. See PG#305
Produced by David Widger
"Baron Trigault's Vengeance" by Emile Gaboriau is a novel likely written in the late 19th century, serving as a sequel to "The Count's Millions." The story revolves around Pascal Ferailleur, a man consumed by a desire for vengeance after being wrongfully accused and disgraced, which has cost him a promising future and the love of a woman named Marguerite. The narrative delves into themes of revenge, honor, and the depths of human emotion in the context of betrayal and societal intrigue. At the start of the novel, we find Pascal grappling with despair after a calamitous slander that implicates him and jeopardizes his relationship with Marguerite. His mother, Madame Ferailleur, tries to pull him from the depths of his anguish as they discuss hiring a new cook, Madame Vantrasson, who unexpectedly brings disturbing news about Marguerite’s past. As the plot unfolds, it becomes clear that Pascal’s quest for retribution is tied to powerful adversaries, including the enigmatic Baron Trigault and the notorious Marquis de Valorsay. The opening establishes a complex web of relationships and sets the stage for a dramatic clash of wills in a society rife with scandal and deception. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
