The inspiration behind the smash hit Netflix original series Lupin!

"Tut, tut, Lupin, keep cool! What's expected of you? To open a safe, of which you don't know the secret, in thirty seconds. That's a mere trifle to lose your head about!"

The Confessions of Arsène Lupin finds Maurice Leblanc's gentleman-thief staying one step ahead of the police in a series of short stories. Much like the ones that first saw him rise to fame, these ten tales feature Arsène Lupin at his best, using his observational skills to solve puzzles that are simply unsolvable.

A criminal mastermind such as Arsène Lupin is willing to use his skills for good—especially if there is a reward at stake. Whether it's finding a missing baroness that ran off with the royal jewels, or helping his longtime nemesis Inspector Ganimard solve a murder, Lupin outwits his opponents time and time again.
