"The Lantern" is set in the Luberon region in the south of France and is full of lush descriptions of the area. The narrative alternates between Eve, a woman living in "Les Genevriers" in the modern day, and Benedicte, a woman whose family has lived at "Les Genevriers" and who is unraveling her own story. Eve suspects that there is something mysterious in her lover's history about his ex-wife and is starting to investigate. As doubt and suspicion grow, it becomes more clear that something sinister has happened.
