Summary: The Secret of Sarek (1920) is a novel by Maurice Leblanc. Partly based on the life of French anarchist Marius Jacob, Arsène Lupin first appeared in print in 1905 as an answer to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. Blending crime fiction, fantasy, and mystery, Leblanc crafts original and entertaining tales of adventure starring one of the greatest literary characters of all time--Arsène Lupin, gentleman thief. Arsène Lupin is the world's greatest thief, an unmatched force for good whose exploits threaten the wealth and standing of France's most wicked men. In this debut installment of Leblanc's beloved series, Lupin uses his remarkable wit and chameleon-like ability to move undetected through aristocratic society in order to steal, trick, and cheat his way through life. Despite his criminal nature, he operates under a strict moral code, only taking from those who have taken from the poor all their lives. In this installment of Leblanc's beloved series, a woman learns that her long lost son, who was kidnapped years prior, has been found alive on the island of Sarek. Veronique, who assumed he was dead, had left her husband and her hopes of starting a family behind, dedicating her life to service as a Carmelite nun. Now filled with hope, she abandons her vows to set sail for the island, where she discovers a horrifying truth. The Secret of Sarek is a story of romance, mystery, and crime that continues to astound over a century after it was published. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Maurice Leblanc's The Secret of Sarek is a classic of French literature reimagined for modern readers.
