Synopsis

A Cryptic Cipher. A Triple Murder. The Darkest Game Arsène Lupin Has Ever Played. A wealthy diamond king is brutally murdered in a locked Paris hotel room, leaving behind a mysterious package, a sheet of paper with the number "813," and a corpse bearing the calling card of Arsène Lupin. But for the first time in his career, the gentleman-burglar is completely innocent. Framed by a ruthless, invisible mastermind who leaves a trail of blood across Europe, Lupin must step out of the shadows not just to steal, but to clear his own name before the police—and a sinister enemy—trap him forever. What starts as a clever theft quickly escalates into a high-stakes political conspiracy involving secret international treaties, imperial crown jewels, and a deadly cipher that could alter the map of Europe. To solve the enigma of "813," Lupin must deploy every disguise, unlock every secret chamber, and push his brilliant mind to its absolute limits. But as the bodies pile up, he realizes his adversary is just as brilliant, twice as cruel, and always one step ahead. Experience the absolute masterpiece of Maurice Leblanc’s legendary series.

About Maurice Leblanc

Maurice Marie Émile Leblanc was a profound French novelist and short story writer whose creation of the charming, elusive master thief Arsène Lupin left an indelible mark on world detective fiction. Operating during the vibrant era of Belle Époque France, Leblanc redefined the boundaries of crime literature by introducing a protagonist who was not a defender of the law, but a brilliant outlaw with a strict moral code. Early Life and Literary Ambitions: Born on December 11, 1864, in Rouen, Normandy, Leblanc was the son of a wealthy Italian ship-owner. Growing up in a prosperous household, he was deeply influenced by the rich cultural atmosphere of 19th-century France. Although his father strongly pushed him to pursue a practical career in the local manufacturing industry, Leblanc’s heart belonged entirely to literature.
