Summary

"The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar" by Maurice Leblanc is a novel about the escapades of Arsène Lupin, a celebrated gentleman thief known for his intelligence and ability to cleverly swindle the wealthy and evade law enforcement, notably the detective Ganimard. Set perhaps in the early 1900's, the story is kicked off aboard a transatlantic steamship where a wireless message announces Lupin's presence, resulting in heightened anxiety and suspicion among the passengers, especially regarding a passenger named Rozaine, amid social interactions and a jewelry theft, which leads to a gripping battle of wits as everyone tries to figure out who Lupin really is. The book promises a tale of crime, mystery, and deception, showcasing adventure and intense mystery.
