The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin

by Maurice Leblanc

A gentleman thief outwits police, rivals, and the occasional actual detective across a series of increasingly audacious capers, treating theft less as a crime than as a demonstration of taste. Leblanc wrote him partly as a cheeky French answer to a certain famous London detective. He steals considerably more hearts in this catalogue than valuables.
