요약 | The third installment in the irresistible adventures of A.J. Raffles, the thief who gives crime a good nameFor weeks, Bunny Manders has scoured the sporting papers, looking for word of his vanished friend--the cricketer, playboy, and gentleman thief A.J. Raffles. A mysterious message lures Bunny to a darkened side street, where he finds Raffles in filthy clothes, with an unkempt beard. The amateur cracksman has been lying low in the empty townhouse of a vacationing colonel--what better place to take a Rest Cure? He invites Bunny to stay with him, but when the colonel returns unexpectedly, the public school duo is forced to contemplate a crime beyond reason: murder. Pushed to the very brink of disaster, the quick-footed Raffles recovers in style. In these classic stories, England's most honorable thief and his loyal companion elude criminologists, cops, and ruthless professional villains, stealing whatever they want--and doing it with flair. This ebook features a new introduction by Otto Penzler and has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices. |
