Si des fantômes hantent toujours la place de l'Alma, c'est peut-être parce que des secrets enfouis dans la mémoire des vivants peinent encore à trouver le chemin de la lumière. Neuf ans après le très médiatique crash de l'Alma, n'est-il pas temps d'en finir avec l'affrontement stérile: théorie de l'accident contre théorie du complot ? Et de traiter sérieusement une affaire réduite dès la première heure à la rubrique people et au fait divers? Si le rôle de l'institution judiciaire est de rétablir l'ordre public, cette mission semble avoir été parfaitement remplie par la France après la mort spectaculaire de la princesse Diana à Paris dans la nuit du 30 au 31 août 1997: un banal accident de la route.
Mais la vérité sur cette mort embarassante demeure fuyante, et les événements qui l'ont précédée, occultés par le glamour, sont restés ignorés du public tenu trop souvent à l'écart des affaires du monde et du monde des affaires. Les sujets de Sa Très Gracieuse Majesté Elisabeth II, toujours perplexes depuis la clôture de l'instruction française, ont obtenu de haute lutte que soit ouverte une enquête criminelle inédite. C'était le 6 janvier 2004, soit six ans et demi après les faits. Devant la complexité tentaculaire du dossier, la police britannique n'a toujours pas rendu ses conclusions. En effet, ni la course-pursuite avec des paparazzi pas plus qu'un excès de vitesse n'ont été retenus. De plus, l'ombre épaisse du doute plane sur les expertises médico-légales. Alors seulement on a commencé à se souvenir que Diana, bête noire de l'establishment anglais, n'était pas seule à avoir trouvé la mort dans cet étrange accident... Outre le décès instantané du chauffeur occasionnel, Henri Paul, la disparition d'Emad Fayed, dit Dodi, le compagnon de la princesse, a endeuillé la famille Fayed. Son père, Mohamed, richissime homme d'affaires égyptien, s'était lui aussi mis dos une bonne partie de ce que la bonne société londonienne compte de nantis et de businessmen depuis sa réussite spectaculaire et sa mainmise sur les magasins Harrods, fournisseurs de la Couronne. C'est vers les sphères opaques des groupes d'influences du luxe et du pouvoir que s'oriente la présente enquête. Elle propose un éclairage inédit sur la mort de Diana, princesse de Galles, et de Dodi al-Fayed en orientant les recherches vers cet autre monde dans lequel évoluaient les amants tragiques.
