Arsène Lupin

"Arsène Lupin" by Maurice Leblanc is a collection of stories published in 1907. This debut collection introduces the charming gentleman thief Arsène Lupin through nine tales of audacious crimes and clever escapes. From evading capture aboard an ocean liner to orchestrating thefts while imprisoned, Lupin outwits police and victims alike with masterful disguises and ingenious schemes. The stories follow detective Ganimard's futile attempts to catch the elusive criminal, who always seems one step ahead. One adventure even features a famous English detective, later renamed to avoid legal complications. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
