| Summary |
"813: Arsène Lupinin merkilliset seikkailut" by Maurice Leblanc is a detective novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces us to the enigmatic character Arsène Lupin, a gentleman thief and master of disguise, who engages in thrilling escapades that often involve crime and clever maneuverings. The central plot appears to focus on a mystery involving Rudolf Kesselbach, who finds himself embroiled in a dangerous scenario filled with suspicion and intrigue. At the start of the novel, we meet Rudolf Kesselbach, a wealthy man, who has just returned to his hotel room after dinner to discover signs of a break-in. He is agitated and convinced that a thief has been in his room, despite his assistant’s skepticism. Tension builds as Kesselbach makes plans to involve the police, and the atmosphere grows increasingly suspicious when Kesselbach reveals a larger ambition that hints at political power. This opening chapter sets the stage for a conflict involving Kesselbach, a mysterious villain, and ultimately, the infamous Arsène Lupin, who is suggested to be lurking in the shadows waiting for an opportunity to unveil his next grand scheme.
