Product Description
Product Description
Maurice LeBlanc's gentleman thief returns in this intricately plotted tale of disguises, loot, and love. Once more Lupin is at large, snatching fortunes from under the noses of the wealthy. But this time he may have met his match . . . and not in his usual nemeses, Inspector Ganimard or Holmlock Shears, but in a bright school student who manages to penetrate his secrets-and reaches his treasure-trove! But the greatest danger may be the woman with whom Lupin has fallen in love, for she has made him promise to give up his life of crime . . .

Something Special in This One, Jun 3 2007
By James H. Felder - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Hollow Needle: The Further Adventures of Arsene Lupin (Hardcover)
If you've been following the Lupin stories in order, you'll note that they can run hot and cold. This one has cold parts. It's really the story of a boy genius who's hunting down Lupin; as the other reviewer noted, Lupin is absent for parts of the story. But, unlike some of the Lupin stories, there is a psychological depth here. The boy's relationship with Lupin changes and shifts as the book goes along, to the point where you care about the boy and his adventure. And the last few pages feature Lupin in one of his most memorable and earnest conclusions.
