Book Description
In the process of writing his memoirs, Arsène Lupin takes us back to his early twenties and his first love: Clarice d’Etigues. Although forbidden by her father to meet, that doesn’t stop Ralph d’Andresy—Lupin’s nom du jour—from wooing Clarice. But when he finds evidence on the d’Etigues estate of a conspiracy to murder a woman, he cannot help but be drawn into the ensuing three-way race to a legendary treasure. Memoirs of Arsène Lupin was originally published in France in 1924 under the name La Comtesse de Cagliostro; this English translation was published the following year. Maurice Leblanc was not the only author to call on the myth of Cagliostro as a framing device: both Goethe and Dumas had written famous novels on the subject. This story showcases a Lupin who is growing into his abilities, and with the swings between outright confidence and self-doubt that would be expected of so comparatively young a protagonist. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

Book Description
This is the story of the first adventure of Arsène Lupin, and undoubtedly it would have been published before the stories of the others if he had not so often and so resolutely opposed it. “No,” he would say, “there are one or two little matters yet to be settled between the Countess of Cagliostro and me. We must wait.” The waiting lasted longer than he foresaw. More than a quarter of a century passed before the final settlement; and only to-day am I permitted to relate the frightful duel of love and hate which brought a boy of twenty to grips with Cagliostro’s daughter.

THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE BY MAURICE LEBLANC
Author: Arsene Lupin Adventure
Publisher: BEYOND BOOKS HUB
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 409
Book Description
THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE BY MAURICE LEBLANC The Golden Triangle is another fantastic mystery by Leblanc featuring gentleman thief Arsene Lupin. It takes place during World War I and wounded warrior Patrice Belval is in love with his nurse. This early work by Maurice Leblanc was originally published in 1918 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. Maurice Marie Émile Leblanc was born on 11th November 1864 in Rouen, Normandy, France. He was a novelist and writer of short stories, known primarily as the creator of the fictional gentleman thief and detective, Arsène Lupin. From the start, Leblanc wrote both short crime stories and longer novels - and his lengthier tomes, heavily influenced by writers such as Flaubert and Maupassant, were critically admired, but met with little commercial success. Leblanc was largely considered little more than a writer of short stories for various French periodicals when the first Arsène Lupin story appeared. It was published as a series of stories in the magazine 'Je Sais Trout', starting on 15th July 1905. THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE BY MAURICE LEBLANC Clearly created at editorial request under the influence of, and in reaction to, the wildly successful Sherlock Holmes stories, the roguish and glamorous Lupin was a surprise success and Leblanc's fame and fortune beckoned. In total, Leblanc went on to write twenty-one Lupin novels or collections of short stories. On this success, he later moved to a beautiful country-side retreat in Étreat (in the Haute-Normandie region in north-western France), which today is a museum dedicated to the Arsène Lupin books. He died in Perpignan (the capital of the Pyrénées-Orientales department in southern France) on 6th November 1941, at the age of seventy-six. THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE BY MAURICE LEBLANC As our tale opens, Arsene Lupin is but a memory. We see his picturesque grave, and perhaps we take a moment to mourn his passing. THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE BY MAURICE LEBLANC But around us, a mystery comes into focus -- a mystery involving Captain Patrice Belval and a one-armed African named Ya-Bon and a nurse we know only as Little Mother Coralie . . . THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE BY MAURICE LEBLANC Before the tale has tolled, Arsene Lupin will live again. There are mysteries to be resolved!"
