Overview
France's answer to Sherlock Holmes—the mischievous gentleman-thief Arsène Lupin—goes head to head with the English detective in this very funny mystery novel by Maurice Leblanc, whose classic character inspired the major streaming series Lupin.
Arsène Lupin is a world-famous master of disguise and planner of elaborate heists whose exploits are regularly splashed across newspaper pages, entertaining all of France. When not committing crimes, Lupin often turns detective himself when it suits him, solving puzzles that have stumped the experts. In Arsène Lupin versus Sherlock Holmes, first published in France in 1908, Lupin exercises all these skills while matching wits with his rival from England.
After a series of spectacular crimes leading up to the disappearance of the world-famous Blue Diamond stumps the Paris Police, Lupin is suspected by all and Sherlock Holmes is summoned to cross the Channel and help catch the master criminal. Lupin is delighted by the opportunity to take on a worthy opponent, and the ensuing duel takes many unexpected and comic twists and turns before all the mysteries are solved.
