This classic crime novel introduces A. J. Raffles, a gentleman thief who leads a double life as a skilled cricketer and a notorious burglar. Alongside his loyal companion, Bunny Manders, Raffles navigates high society while secretly engaging in daring heists. With wit, charm, and a touch of moral ambiguity, Hornung's creation stands as a captivating anti-hero in the genre of crime fiction.
Ernest William Hornung (1866-1921) was an English author, best known for the Raffles series of novels about a gentleman thief in late Victorian London. This volume is illustrated by photographs from the 1930 film version.
