Used book – Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Thief, Maurice Leblanc

Lively, audacious, impertinent, constantly outwitting the police commissioner (who, in this case, is Inspector Ganimard), winning hearts and having everyone on his side, mocking established situations, ridiculing the bourgeoisie, helping the weak, Arsène Lupin, gentleman thief, is a Robin Hood of the "Belle Époque." A very French Robin Hood: he doesn't take himself too seriously, his deadliest weapons are his wit; he is not an aristocrat who lives like an anarchist but an anarchist who lives like an aristocrat. Arsène Lupin, after more than half a century, has not aged. He will never age, despite his top hat, his cape, and his monocle.
