| Summary | "Lord Lister No. 0029: Het Indische raadsel" by Kurt Matull and Theo von Blankensee is a fictional adventure novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Lord Richard Turkington, who grapples with his family's dark legacy connected to an ancient Indian mystery known as Akasa, which has historically resulted in madness and death for the male heirs of his lineage. As he seeks to unravel the enigma surrounding this word, Richard enlists the help of Raffles, a charismatic figure skilled in perilous exploits. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the Maharadjah of Indrabad arriving in England, while Lord Turkington receives alarming news about his dying father. This sets off a chain of events, revealing a family curse linked to a word that his father implores him never to pursue. The narrative quickly captures Richard's resolve to avoid his father's fate, which leads him to investigate the mysterious Akasa. The opening effectively establishes a tone of suspense and adventure, showcasing the intriguing interplay of Indian mysticism and English nobility, piquing the reader's curiosity about the repercussions of embracing or evading one’s destiny.
