Young Hoffmann arrives in the bloodsoaked capital with dreams of art and culture, bound by a sacred promise to his beloved Antonia back in Germany. But when he witnesses the horrific execution of Madame du Barry, his world tilts toward madness.
At the Opera, he encounters her—Arsène, the mysterious dancer whose beauty is matched only by her terrible secret. Around her neck lies a velvet necklace with a silver clasp shaped like a guillotine. She is Danton's mistress, untouchable and irresistible.
Consumed by obsession, Hoffmann breaks his solemn vow, gambling away his honor for a single night with this enigmatic woman. But in the morning, he will discover the horrifying truth about the woman with the velvet necklace—and learn that some desires exact a price beyond imagining.
From the master of historical adventure comes this haunting tale of passion and terror, where the line between the living and the dead grows thin, and love becomes a dance with death itself.
"A recognized classic of the gothic fantastique genre... Dumas explores the boundaries between desire and madness with masterful precision."
Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870) is the legendary author of The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo. In this lesser-known masterpiece, he ventures into the realm of supernatural horror, creating an unforgettable portrait of Revolutionary France at its most terrifying.
