"Neljä naista ristillä: Jännitysromaani" by Maurice Leblanc is a thrilling novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Véronique d'Hergemont, a woman whose tumultuous past haunts her, including the mysterious deaths of her father and son, as well as her troubled marriage to Alexis Vorski. As she navigates through her grief and the shadows of her former life, the plot promises an unraveling of secrets, betrayal, and an unforeseen journey into her dark history. The opening of the novel introduces a series of dramatic events surrounding Véronique and her family. It recounts the circumstances of her father's attack and the subsequent kidnapping of Véronique, tragically leading to a false sense of closure regarding her family's fate. Years later, driven by a need for clarity, Véronique receives a letter that stirs up memories and leads her back to a desolate hut in Brittany, where she uncovers a body and a disturbing drawing depicting four women on crosses. This discovery sets off a chain of events that compel her to seek the truth about her past, igniting a path filled with mystery and suspense. As she delves deeper, her journey unveils connections to her lost son and a dark prophecy surrounding her family, positioning her at the heart of a thrilling narrative.
