The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin

A Charming Rogue.
An Impenetrable Vault.
The Birth of a Literary Legend.

Enter a world of high-society galas, luxury ocean liners, and grand French châteaux, where no safe is secure and no alibi is foolproof. Maurice Leblanc introduces one of the most brilliant and beloved anti-heroes in literary history: Arsène Lupin. He is not an ordinary criminal, but an aristocratic gentleman-thief who steals only from the greedy elite, leaves a polite calling card at the scene of the crime, and uses his vast wealth to protect the innocent. With his flawless disguises, razor-sharp wit, and elegant manners, he transforms crime into a spectacular art form.

This seminal collection brings together the first nine breathtaking adventures of the master thief. From staging a daring heist while locked inside a maximum-security prison cell to solving centuries-old historical riddles that have baffled the greatest minds in Europe, Lupin turns the law into his personal playground. The helpless police inspectors and arrogant aristocrats are completely outmatched as Lupin deploys brilliant psychological misdirection and calculated risks to stay exactly one step ahead of the law.
