Richard Hannay is bored—until his neighbor shows up with a wild story of espionage, an impending war, and a mysterious organization called the 39 Steps. Hours later, the man is dead, and Hannay is the prime suspect.

Fast-paced, sharp, and endlessly gripping, The 39 Steps is the original man-on-the-run thriller—a template for everything from Hitchcock to Bond.

Isidore Beautrelet, a precocious young detective, is hot on Lupin’s heels as he attempts to crack the mystery of the Hollow Needle and swindle its fortune. Despite Lupin’s cunning tricks and disguises, Beautrelet gets closer and closer to the truth in what becomes a thrilling battle of intellect and wit.

Told always with wit, candidness and a shade of pride, these remarkable stories see Lupin as a master criminal, lead detective, hopeless romantic and even champion of justice.
