"Lord Lister No. 0018: Het geheim van de verminkte kinderen" by Matull and Blankensee is a fictional novel set in a mysterious and suspenseful atmosphere, likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Lord Lister, also known as John Raffles, an elusive gentleman-thief who is drawn into a dark investigation involving the wealthy Mr. Pigott and his questionable activities regarding mutilated children. The book promises an intriguing mix of crime, mystery, and adventure as Raffles seeks to unravel a sinister secret. At the start of the narrative, we find Lord Lister in his lavish London home, discussing the curious wealth of a man named Pigott with his friend Charly Brand. Lister's curiosity drives him to investigate Pigott further, leading to a failed burglary attempt that quickly escalates into a dangerous situation. In the midst of the chaos, Brand overhears shocking sounds indicative of child suffering coming from Pigott's residence. As Raffles continues his inquiry, he secretly dons disguises and employs clever tactics, motivated by both a sense of justice and the apprehension of confronting unthinkable crimes. This opening sets the tone for a gripping tale of intrigue and moral conflict intertwined with the pursuit for truth. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
