Description

A sudden telegram summons the famed gentleman thief back to London, and his old companion Bunny eagerly awaits their reunion at a sumptuous banquet. Raffles arrives, gaunt yet unmistakably charismatic, and immediately dives into a conversation about a recent, bizarre episode in the spa town of Carlsbad—an ill‑fated theft of a dazzling emerald necklace that has left both men unsettled. Their banter reveals a tangled mix of admiration, guilt, and the lingering thrill of a heist that slipped through their fingers.

As the evening unfolds, Raffles’s restless mind begins to plot a new course, hinting that the stolen jewels are only the beginning of a larger, more daring scheme. The pair’s chemistry crackles with the promise of intrigue, and listeners are invited to follow their witty repartee and daring exploits through the fog‑laden streets of Victorian London. The stage is set for a fresh adventure that will test loyalty, cleverness, and the fine line between honor and outlawry.

Best remembered as the creator of A. J. Raffles, the charming gentleman thief, he helped turn crime fiction on its head by making the criminal the hero. His stories mix wit, suspense, and a sharp feel for late-Victorian and Edwardian life.
