Book excerpt: A collection of stories by Maurice Leblanc featuring his famous protagonist Arsène Lupin. Created by Leblanc at the start of the twentieth century, Lupin is a witty confidence man and gentleman burgler—the Sherlock Holmes of crime. The poor and innocent have nothing to fear from him, often profiting from his spontaneous generosity. The rich and powerful, and the detective who tries to spoil his fun, however, must beware, for they are the target of Lupin’s mischief and tomfoolery. Sparkling with amusing banter, these stories are outrageous, melodramatic, hilarious, and fun. Featuring nine stories: “The Arrest of Arsène Lupin,” “Arsène Lupin in Prison,” “The Escape of Arsène Lupin,” “The Mysterious Traveller,” “The Queen's Necklace,” “The Seven of Hearts,” “Madame Imbert’s Safe,” “The Black Pearl,” and “Sherlock Holmes Arrives Too Late.” Penguin Random House Canada is proud to bring you classic works of literature in e-book form, with the highest quality production values.
