Arsene Lupin

Beschreibung

LeBlanc's creation, gentleman thief Arsene Lupin, is everything you would expect from a French aristocrat -- witty, charming, brilliant, sly . . . and possibly the greatest thief in the world. In this classic tale, Lupin plans -- and pulls off -- the theft of priceless paintings for his own private collection. His brilliant effrontery in the face of the police dares them to catch him . . . with spectacular results! Includes a new introduction by literary scholar Darrell Schweitzer.

Maurice Leblanc (1864-1941) was a French writer and novelist born in Rouen, France. Leblanc is best known for his creation of Arsène Lupin, the titular character of a series of detective short stories and novels.
