From the rear cover
The first collection of short stories by French novelist Maurice Leblanc--and the inspiration for countless retellings, interpretations, and adaptations in film, television, comic books, games, and more--Lupin depicts the elaborate capers of a suave thief and master of disguise as he steals from the rich and powerful. Originally published in 1907 as Arsne Lupin, Gentleman Burglar, the collection contains nine stories depicting this classic character, including some of his best-known adventures. Charmingly written and full of wit, the book includes "The Arrest of Arsne Lupin," detailing a transatlantic steamship voyage with the legendary thief hiding among the passengers; "The Escape of Arsne Lupin," revealing his brilliant scheme to get out of prison before trial; and "Sherlock Holmes Arrives Too Late," adding Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's timeless detective to the mix. Additional stories include "The Mysterious Traveler," "The Queen's Necklace," "The Seven of Hearts," "Madame Imbert's Safe," "The Black Pearl," and "Arsne Lupin in Prison."
