The Smile of the Sphinx is a novel written by French author Marguerite Bouvet and published in 1911. The story follows the life of a young woman named Jeanne who, after the death of her father, is forced to leave her comfortable life in Paris and move to a small village in the south of France to live with her uncle and aunt. There, she meets a mysterious man named Nicolas who is rumored to be involved in illegal activities. Despite warnings from her family and friends, Jeanne becomes infatuated with Nicolas and becomes entangled in his dangerous world. As she becomes more involved with Nicolas, Jeanne begins to uncover secrets about her family's past and must decide whether to continue down a dangerous path or return to her previous life.
