Lord Lister No. 0373: De krankzinnige

An opening scene at a busy theatre introduces a collapsed, destitute man whose fate draws the attention of a wealthy, enigmatic benefactor who secretly harbors a criminal alter ego. The narrative unfolds through successive chapters that reconstruct the collapsed man’s past via testimony and inquiry, revealing unsettling discoveries about supposed madness, family ties to an elderly father, and personal motives shaped by love. Episodes combine immediate rescue, investigative revelations, and emotional backstory to explain the man’s condition and the moral ambiguities surrounding those who aid or exploit him.
