The Lost Prince - Francis Hodgson Burnett The Lost Prince is a
novel by British-American author Frances Hodgson Burnett, first
published in 1915. This book is about Marco Loristan, his father,
and his friend, a street urchin called "The Rat." Marco's father,
Stefan, is a Samavian patriot working to overthrow the cruel
dictatorship in the kingdom of Samavia. Marco and his father come
to London where Marco strikes up a friendship with a crippled
street urchin known as The Rat. The friendship occurs when Marco
overhears The Rat shouting in military form. Marco discovers he had
stumbled upon a strangely militia-like club known as the Squad.
Stefan, realizing that two boys are less likely to be noticed,
entrusts them with a secret mission to travel across Europe giving
the secret sign: 'The Lamp is lighted.' Marco is to go as the
Bearer of the sign while Rat goes as his Aide-de-Camp. This brings
about a revolution which succeeds in overthrowing the old regime
and re-establishing the rightful king. When Marco and The Rat
return to London, Stefan has already left for Samavia. They wait
there with his father's faithful bodyguard, Lazarus, until Stefan
calls. The book ends in a climactic scene as Marco realizes his
father is the descendant of Ivor Fedorovitch and thus the rightful
king of Samavia.
