| Summary |
"Lord Lister No. 0003: De Ridderordendiefstal in het Koninklijk Paleis" by Matull et al. is a fictional detective novel written in the late 19th century. The story features the protagonist, Rechercheur White, and takes readers on a thrilling journey through a world of crime, mystery, and the elite of London, revolving around the theft of royal orders and the peculiar criminal known as Raffles. The opening portion introduces Rechercheur White as he rushes to protect a young woman named Ellen Crofton from a group of attackers in St. James Street. After successfully safeguarding her, White engages with Inspector Baxter at Scotland Yard, who dismisses White’s concerns about the incident and the club affiliations of the attackers. The narrative sets the stage for the unfolding drama, culminating in a nuanced exploration of morality and justice as the inspector, fueled by his disdain for Raffles, who is seen as a master thief, becomes embroiled in the overarching mystery of theft and potential murder within the elite circles of London.
