Summary |
"Lord Lister No. 0382: De agent van Lenin" by Matull, Blankensee, and Hageman is a fictional narrative likely written in the 20th century. The story revolves around the character of Count Stanislaw Stijkof, a Russian nobleman who, having narrowly escaped the grip of the Bolsheviks, arrives in London, where journalists eagerly seek his story. However, beneath his aristocratic facade lies a deeper intrigue, as elements of espionage and revolution hint at connections to Lenin and the Bolshevik agenda. The opening of the story introduces Count Stijkof as he checks into the prestigious Hotel Cecil, causing a stir among reporters who sense a compelling story. Despite his desire for privacy, the persistent journalists manage to arrange an interview with him. As the narrative unfolds, a French correspondent named André Devinard slyly introduces himself, claiming journalistic curiosity while keeping an eye on the count. The tension mounts as the count recounts his harrowing escape from Russia, drawing the attention of the other journalists. Simultaneously, the narrative hints at a double identity for the count, suggesting he may not be who he claims to be, setting the stage for an unfolding drama filled with political espionage and secretive motives.
