sigh It's a bit difficult because there are some brilliant bits, and then some really stupid stuff, but most of it is stupid. So, a woman died. No-one cares. This is kind of Maurice Leblanc's version of [b:A Study in Scarlet 102868 A Study in Scarlet (Sherlock Holmes, #1) Arthur Conan Doyle https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1519031842l/102868.SX50.jpg 1997473], but as a woman couldn't possibly be more intelligent than a man, his “Irene” is mad and pays for her audacity. I mean, the things she did... she did play Arsene every step of the way. The only reason she “lost” was because she fell in love with him. I don't like Arsene Lupin after this. He is a total a-hole in this one.
