| Summary |
"Hänen ylhäisyytensä seikkailu: Salapoliisiromaani" by Sven Elvestad is a detective novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Asbjörn Krag, the chief of police in Kristiania, who engages with a seemingly ordinary man named Karl Adolf Boman after he has experienced a bizarre and violent incident. The book is likely to appeal to readers interested in classic detective stories with a focus on intrigue and the unraveling of crime. At the start of the novel, Karl Adolf Boman visits the office of Asbjörn Krag to recount a strange adventure he had the previous evening. Boman, a working-class man, explains how he was approached by a well-dressed stranger who requested his help with a malfunctioning motor. This seemingly simple task soon led to an assault in a mysterious apartment after Boman was knocked unconscious. As the narrative unfolds, Boman's account reveals a web of deception and danger, prompting the keen investigator Krag to delve deeper into the circumstances surrounding the attack and the identity of the enigmatic assailant.
