Raffles, Gentleman Thief

By Hornung, E. W.

0 - Default Title
Description
A selection of the best classic crime stories featuring the much-loved rogue, Raffles 'Why should I work when I could steal? Why settle down to some humdrum uncongenial billet, when excitement, romance, danger, and a decent living were all going begging together? Of course, it's very wrong, but we can't all be moralists' Dashing man about town, first-class cricketer and master burglar: Raffles is the ultimate gentleman thief. Here we find the debonair rogue cracking a jeweller's safe on Bond Street, stealing from the nouveau riche, spiriting away a priceless pearl, outwitting the law at every turn - and, of course, bowling like a demon - all with the assistance of his plucky sidekick Bunny Manders. This new selection of Ernest Hornung's much-loved crime stories is taken from his three Raffles collections, The Amateur Cracksman, The Black Mask and A Thief in the Night.
