| Summary | "The Crystal Stopper" by Maurice Leblanc is a novel likely written during the early 20th century. The story centers around Arsène Lupin, a clever and audacious thief known for his charismatic personality and clever heists. In this installment, Lupin navigates a web of intrigue involving treachery, murder, and a mysterious crystal stopper that holds great importance, intertwined with the lives of other characters, including Gilbert and Vaucheray, who face grave consequences. At the start of the book, the atmosphere is tense as Lupin and his accomplices prepare for a break-in at the Villa Marie-Thérèse. The chapter quickly escalates with the unexpected arrival of Léonard, the deputy's valet, who becomes a casualty in the ensuing chaos. The narrative showcases Lupin's quick thinking and resourcefulness as he faces internal betrayals, particularly when he learns that the treasures he sought may not be what they seem. The opening sets the stage for a complex plot, introducing elements of deception and the weight of choices that lead both Lupin and his associates down a perilous path.
