Description

In the dim corridors of Rue Clovis, a forgotten quarter of Saint‑Geneviève, the story unfolds around a shabby shop that sells coal, vegetables and milk. The proprietor, the frail yet kindly Mère Arsène, watches the street from her stair‑case, while the narrow courtyard hides a second, dilapidated building that seems to breathe secrets. This gloomy backdrop sets the stage for a new chapter of intrigue, where hidden motives stir beneath the everyday bustle.

Into this world steps Rose‑Pompon, a lively young woman still mourning a lost love, whose bright eyes and restless spirit draw the attention of both allies and adversaries. She becomes entangled with the enigmatic Rodin and the shadowy figures that manipulate the city’s undercurrents, each promising aid while concealing their true intentions. As whispers of conspiracies and betrayals spread, the fragile balance of power threatens to crumble.

The tension builds as the protagonists navigate a maze of loyalties, clues, and danger. Listeners can expect a riveting continuation of the saga that began with the wandering Jew.
