Omschrijving

'The Sign of the Shadow, the Confessions of Arsène Lupin' is a classic crime caper by the French writer Maurice Leblanc, featuring his famous gentleman-thief turned detective, Arsène Lupin.

A witty and charismatic character widely regarded as the French 'Sherlock Holmes', the daring detective looks back on his action-packed adventures in this third tale from the ten-story collection 'Confessions of Arsène Lupin'.

The other stories in this compilation are: 'Two Hundred Thousand Francs Reward', 'The Wedding Ring', 'The Infernal Trap', 'The Red Silk Scarf', 'Shadowed by Death', 'A Tragedy in the Forest of Morgues', 'Lupin's Marriage', 'The Invisible Prisoner' and 'Edith Swan-Neck'.

Full of murder and intrigue, these classic nail-biting mysteries are perfect for fans of the Netflix TV series 'Lupin' and Arthur Conan Doyle's 'Sherlock Holmes' stories.

Maurice Leblanc (1864 - 1941) was a French author and journalist, whose literary legacy consists of novels and short stories. Although he wrote two well-received science fiction books, he was most famous for his gentleman thief adventure series, 'Arsène Lupin' who was considered a French counterpart to Arthur Conan Doyle's fictional detective 'Sherlock Holmes'.

A whip-smart, witty, and roguishly handsome master of disguise, Lupin became an international success and saw Leblanc write over 60 crime novels and short stories featuring his French detective. The books inspired the hit Netflix TV series 'Lupin' starring Omar Sy, Ludivine Sagnier, and Clotilde Hesme.

He was awarded the Légion d'Honneur for his services to literature.
