Enjoyed this mystery

Another good Lupine mystery, where we learn a bit more about him, and those he works with. We also learn how Lupine has avoided capture for so long... :-) Reader did an excellent job. This is a wonderful story, enjoy!
Fine story, Fine reading

Excellent story, to my mind the best of the Arsene Lupin stories. The reader did a wonderful job. As the story progressed I forgot that there was a reader, there was just the story and the characters.
Fantastic
