Synopsis "Arsenio Lupin, 813 (in Spanish)"

"En esta obra, el lector se encuentra con una trama en la que el misterio y el suspenso se mezclan de la manera magistral que solo puede lograr Maurice Leblanc, impidiendo así que la mente del espectador divague en asuntos alejados a la historia que aquí se cuenta.
Lupin se verá esta vez enfrentado a un adversario que pareciera tener las mismas capacidades, casi que sobrehumanas, que él posee; pero en el caso de este episodio, su enemigo más poderoso no será un detective sino otro villano, que como él, busca satisfacer sus deseos de lujo y riqueza, pero que ha llegado a tal nivel de falta de moral que cometerá el fatal error de llevar a cabo un crimen que los buenos principios de nuestro “caballero ladrón” le impiden realizar.
Gracias a ese crimen, cometido por el segundo villano de esta historia, el detective Lenormand se convencerá de que, en esta aventura, Lupin está corriendo a la par de otro criminal cuya identidad es, a todas luces, desconocida.
A partir de aquí, el lector será testigo de la fuerza del choque de dos titanes que, como dos enormes locomotoras, se precipitan una frente a la otra, ansiosas de la inminente colisión que dejará, sin duda, estupefactos a todos.
Intrigas sin límite, espesas madejas de las que la solución parece volverse cada vez más imposible de hallar, y profundos dilemas personales que conducen a un conocimiento a fondo del alma humana en todos sus estados.
"

Maurice-Marie-Émile Leblanc (Rouen, December 11, 1864-Perpignan, November 6, 1941), better known as Maurice Leblanc, was a French novelist and short story writer

Born into a wealthy family, his father was a rich shipowner based in Rouen. After finishing his law studies, he dedicated himself to working in various industries in the region. After a while not applying himself much to industrial work, he moved to Paris, where he began his literary career, from around 1892 until 1904. He published about ten books, the first of which was titled: Des Couples (Couples).

In 1904, Pierre Laffite, director of Je sais Tout, commissioned him a story for his newly founded magazine. Maurice accepted the commission and soon delivered an original titled "The Arrest of Arsène Lupin". According to the author's own words, this was the only Lupin story he had planned. However, Pierre Laffite was strongly impressed by the character and encouraged Leblanc to develop the character.

Thus, at forty years old and with a literary prestige earned by his previous works, Arsène Lupin was born from the hand of Leblanc, a gentleman thief, whose work consists of almost 20 books.
