Nathan J. Miller and David Widger "The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar" by Maurice Leblanc is a novel likely written during the early 20th century. The story follows the charming and cunning Arsène Lupin, a notorious gentleman thief who uses his wit and disguises to outsmart both the rich and the detectives pursuing him, including his main adversary, Ganimard. The book presents an intriguing exploration of crime and deception, set in a world filled with adventure and suspense. The beginning of the novel introduces us to the setting aboard the transatlantic steamship ‘La Provence’ where passengers enjoy their journey while a mysterious tension builds around the presence of Arsène Lupin, rumored to be on board. As a wireless message alerts the passengers to his identity, the intrigue heightens. Conversations reveal the social dynamics and personal attractions among the characters, especially between Bernard d’Andrézy and the beautiful Miss Nelly Underdown. When a jewelry theft disrupts the voyage, suspicion falls on a fellow passenger named Rozaine, who shares similarities with Lupin, leading to a thrilling contest of wits and escalating tension among the travelers as they grapple with the reality of being in close proximity to a master criminal.
