The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar

The original book which inspired the new Netflix series, Lupin, starring Omar Sy.

His performances leave the police baffled, for he leaves no trace.

First serialized in the French magazine Je Sais Tout in 1905, the character of Maurice Leblanc, soon caught the public imagination, so much that today a greatly successful Netflix series recounts the story of a thief in Paris profoundly inspired by Lupin's original adventures.

The first book of Lupin's series is a collection which includes nine stories dealing with different complicated plots, narrated by various narrators, in which Lupin will prove himself to be the consummate escape artist he is.
