Résumé
When a tantalizing clue to a young woman&’s murder—a torn silk scarf—falls into the hands of Arsène Lupin, the internationally famous gentleman-thief, he senses an irresistible opportunity. Lupin is both a brilliant planner of elaborate heists and an ingenious solver… of mysteries, and in this short story he turns his deductive skills to accomplishing three tasks simultaneously: finding the killer; teasing his archrival, the Inspector Ganimard of the Paris Police; and turning a handsome profit for himself. Drawn from the short story collection The Best of Lupin, &“The Red Silk Scarf&” showcases Maurice Leblanc&’s witty and clever hero at his finest.
