Arsene Lupin is one of the most unforgettable characters to emerge from the early heyday of detective fiction in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. Although he is a thief by trade, Lupin has the refined manner and comportment of an aristocrat, a strong (albeit selective) ethical code, and brilliant powers of deduction. This delightful collection brings together a number of tales detailing Lupin's adventures as both a burglar and a detective.

Entretenida compilación de cuentos policiacos

Si te gusta el género policiaco, este libro te resultará suficientemente entretenido. Su distintivo es que, dentro de dicho género, el protagonista no es un personaje que esté del lado de la autoridad policial, sino un célebre ladrón con una peculiar pero inquebrantable ética que permea cada uno de sus actos.
