Twenty-Four Hours in the Life of a Woman by Stefan Zweig

The dramatic disappearance of the wife of a wealthy businessman from a small hotel on the French Riviera prompts a distinguished English widow to recount her fleeting encounter with a young aristocrat many years before in Monte Carlo. Impulsively following the broken man as he stumbles from the roulette table, she embarks on twenty-four hours of ecstasy, redemption and betrayal which will haunt her life forever.

Zweig travelled widely, living in Salzburg between the wars, and enjoying literary fame. His stories and novellas were collected in 1934.
