Story
Février 1927. Le Tout-Paris assiste aux obsèques de Marcel Péricourt. Sa fille, Madeleine, doit prendre la tête de l'empire financier dont elle est l'héritière, mais le destin en décide autrement. Son fils, Paul, d'un geste inattendu et tragique, va placer Madeleine sur le chemin de la ruine et du déclassement. Face à l'adversité des hommes, à la cupidité de son époque, à la corruption de son milieu et à l'ambition de son entourage, Madeleine devra déployer des trésors d'intelligence, d'énergie mais aussi de machiavélisme pour survivre et reconstruire sa vie

Story
The Pelletiers are a prominent French family living in Beirut. The patriarch, Louis, has built a successful business manufacturing and exporting artisanal soaps. He hoped to pass the business on to his eldest son, Jean, but Jean doesn't have the sharpness or aptitude for such an enterprise. After nearly running the company into the ground, Jean marries a money-grubbing young woman who quickly makes him miserable, and they emigrate to Paris. But there's another reason Jean must leave - he has committed a terrible crime.

Story
Antoine is 12 years old. His parents are divorced, and he lives with his mother in Beauval, a small backwater town surrounded by forests, where everyone knows everyone's business and nothing much ever happens. But in the last days of 1999, a series of events unfolds, culminating in the shocking vanishing without trace of a young child. The adults of the town are at a loss to explain the disappearance, but for Antoine, it all begins with the violent death of his neighbour's dog.

Story
Ambientada entre 1927 y 1933, esta continuación de las peripecias de la familia Péricourt se inicia con el funeral del patriarca Marcel, una ceremonia multitudinaria a la que asiste todo aquel que es, o aspira a ser, alguien en París. Sin embargo, las cosas no pintan demasiado bien para Madeleine, la heredera del ingente patrimonio familiar. Al suicidio de su hermano Édouard, el héroe desfigurado, el encarcelamiento de su ex marido estafador y la muerte de su padre, se añade la delicada situación de su hijo Paul, un niño de siete años que acaba de sufrir un horrible percance.
