The master of detective-adventure genre Maurice Leblanc (1864-1941) dreamed of being a writer since childhood, but first he had to work in a textile equipment factory, then study law, engage in journalism, and only then enter the chosen literary circle....
Leblanc gained fame after publishing the story "The Arrest of Arsène Lupin," written at the request of a Parisian publisher. The prototype of the hero was the anarchist Marius Jacob, a "noble thief" who committed thefts only from "social parasites" - clergy, judges, bankers, and used very clever techniques. Arsène Lupin is a noble, charming thief. Lupin brilliantly uncovers convoluted crimes, masterfully steals jewels, leaving the police looking foolish, and even competes with the famous detective from Baker Street. In "813" we encounter an unfamiliar Lupin, dark, almost frightening. Confronted with the Machiavellian and invisible antagonist "L. M.", he must clear his name from vile accusations of crimes. And for this, he needs to find a batch of letters with explosive political content and decipher the meaning of the mysterious numbers "813", the solution to which could lead to severe consequences for all of Europe.
