| Summary |
"The Golden Triangle: The Return of Arsène Lupin" by Maurice Leblanc is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Captain Patrice Belval, who, despite being wounded in the war, bravely confronts a plot to kidnap a nurse named Coralie while defending her from the attackers. As the narrative unfolds, themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the aftermath of war emerge, entangled within a thrilling plot featuring the cunning character of Arsène Lupin. At the start of the book, we are introduced to a dark and tense scene where wounded soldiers anxiously await the arrival of Coralie, a young nurse, whom abductors are planning to capture. Captain Belval, who has recently been discharged from a hospital, overhears a plot against her and assembles the soldiers to thwart the kidnapping. The situation escalates when Belval and his men intervene just as the attackers attempt to seize Coralie, leading to a confrontation that reveals deeper connections and conspiracies involving her potential abductor and her husband. With suspense gripping the opening chapters, the stage is set for a cat-and-mouse game that draws the reader into a web of intrigue surrounding Coralie's past and her enigmatic protector.
