Qui est Arsène Lupin, sinon l’élégance faite audace ? Dans ce cycle fondateur, un cambrioleur au charme insolent joue avec les lois comme avec les cœurs, dérobant autant les bijoux que les certitudes. Entre salons feutrés de la Belle Époque, paquebots transatlantiques et villas cossues, il change de nom comme de gants, sème des énigmes, défie une police obstinée et retourne chaque piège avec un sourire. Disparitions impossibles, casses de haut vol, déguisements, messages chiffrés : chaque aventure est un tour de magie où l’on croit voir la main quand tout se passe ailleurs.

Chaque récit s’attache moins aux visions qu’aux traces qu’elles laissent, révélant l’enfer intime qui ronge les vivants.
