Parigi, una grisette di nome Marie Rogêt scompare per due volte. Quando il suo cadavere viene rinvenuto lungo l’argine della Senna, la soluzione dell’enigma sembra facile. Tutto si svolge fra dubbie prove raccolte, la scarsa attendibilità delle testimonianze, teorie più o meno affidabili, l’ansia di una città intera e… una traccia sottovalutata. Ben presto la polizia capisce che la verità potrà venire a galla solo grazie all’aiuto di Auguste Dupin.
