corps de l'archiduc héritier d'Autriche-Hongrie, Rodolphe de Habsbourg, l'unique fils de Sissi et de François-Joseph - et celui d'une jeune fille de 17 ans, Mary Vetsera. Immédiatement, les plus folles rumeurs circulent. Laborieusement, la Cour impériale tente d'accréditer la thèse du suicide. Pendant près d'un siècle, cette version "officielle ", fut imposée. Face aux doutes et aux contradictions relevées, le silence l'emporta.
