Max du Veuzit 
The unknown from Castel Pic 

A tutor near me, in Castel-Pic, this isolated mansion in Dylvania where we live in savagery, what an upheaval! 18 years old, we dream of a company other than that of an authoritarian grandmother. With a beating heart, Diane de Kermoc awaits the unknown. He’s coming. He looks at her with disdain. She’s not thinking about anyone but him anymore. Who is he, this strange and overly attractive tutor?

Despite his great airs, he seems to be hiding. Is he a terrorist, a proscribed? The country is going through a troubled period Diane is too curious. We’re taking him away. We send him to Paris where his innocent beauty wreaks havoc. One day, in a living room, she saw with amazement a miniature framed with sapphires that represented her tutor! Determined to unravel the mystery, the young girl returns to Castel-Pic, the one she loves has fled, taking her secret with her.

For Diane, a feverish wait begins
