Le Château Noir

En 1912, lors de la guerre des Balkans, le journaliste Rouletabille est envoyé en Bulgarie pour un reportage — et pour revoir sa douce amante. Mais voilà qu'à peine arrivé, une nouvelle lui parvient: Ivana à été enlevée, et les plans de la mobilisation bulgare ont disparu. Rouletabille, en émoi, mène une double enquête effrénée... Jusqu'à ce que ses pas le conduisent au Château noir...

Gaston Leroux (1868-1927) est un écrivain français. Exerçant le métier d'avocat, il commence par arrondir ses fins de mois en publiant des comptes-rendus de procès pour le journal L'Écho de Paris. Il est repéré en 1893 par le directeur du journal Le Matin: il y devient chroniqueur judiciaire. Son travail est une source d'inspiration pour ses romans. En 1901 il est promu grand reporter, et publie en 1903 «La Double Vie de Théophraste Longuet» sous forme de feuilleton. Sur sa lancée, il publie en 1908 «Le Mystère de la Chambre Jaune», un véritable succès qu'il assure par «Le Fantôme de L'opéra» en 1910, «La Poupée Sanglante» en 1923, «Chéri-Bibi» à compter de 1913.
