Ars?ne Lupin is an audacious crook who, using his powers of deduction, commits untraceable crimes. Witty, cunning and endlessly charming, follow Lupin's colourful adventures as he rights the rich's wrongs and gives back to the poor.

In a charming combination of Sherlock Holmes and Robin Hood, Maurice Leblanc puts a French twist on these timeless tales. The titular character, Ars?ne Lupin, is a mischievous gentleman with an unlimited number of disguises at his disposal. His cleverness, finesse and incredible foresight make him an exceptional criminal, while his wit and humour are utterly charming.

First published in 1905, this short story collection contains the first eight tales in Ars?ne's adventure series:

    - The Arrest of Ars?ne Lupin
    - Ars?ne Lupin in Prison
    - The Escape of Ars?ne Lupin
    - The Mysterious Traveller
    - The Queen's Necklace
    - The Seven of Hearts
    - Madame Imbert's Safe
    - The Black Pearl
    - Sherlock Holmes Arrives Too Late

Proudly republished by Read & Co. Classics, The Extraordinary Adventures of Ars?ne Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar is a must-read for fans of crime fiction and lovers of Sherlock Holmes.
