Arsene Lupin, Dôverné priznania (slovensky) – Leblanc Maurice (2024)

BELOVED AND HATED AND STILL AT LARGE The continuation of the stories about the elusive thief Arsène Lupin once again unfolds in the spirit of unexpected twists and humorous situations. In Confidential Confessions, we once again meet Chief Inspector Ganimard, the head of la Sûreté Mr. Dudouise, and Sherlock Holmes. However, their conflicts with Lupin are much more pronounced this time, and the overall construction of the plot is significantly more intense. Lupin, overflowing with youthful exuberance and joy for life, masterfully weaves the storyline of his nefarious scheme so that after many twists and turns, he ultimately emerges victorious from the duel. Even his opponents cannot help but admire him. The second series of Arsène Lupin's adventures includes three stories selected by the author's granddaughter (Les aventures extraordinaires d’Arsène Lupin, 2011) and six new stories (Hell's Trap, A Scarf of Scarlet Silk, Edith with a Swan's Neck, or Arsène Lupin Gets Married and Others), published by Editions Archipoche under the title Les confidences d’Arsène Lupin (2021). Translated from the French originals Les aventures extraordinaires d'Arsène Lupin (2011) and Les confidences d'Arsène Lupin (2021) by Štefan Povchanič.
