Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Thief by Maurice Leblanc, Roland Russwurm

I wanted to like this more than I did. It might have been due to the translation, but it was often difficult to follow who was being referred and tenses seemed inconsistent. We were more often told the heists were amazing and clever and Arsen is remarkable than ever having it demonstrated. There were moments I was hopeful it was developing into something more fleshed out, but it never really happened. I won't be continuing with the series.
