The Hollow Needle

The riddle of the hollow needle hides a secret that the rulers of France have handed down to each other since ancient times - a royal fortune made up of the most fabulous treasure ever imagined. Arsene Lupin believes he has found the key to unravelling the mystery. However, two opponents are dogging his footsteps. Once again, Lupin's path has crossed with that of his old nemesis Holmlock Shears. And now Isidore Beautrelet - a mere sixth-form schoolboy, but a brilliant amateur detective - is also seeking to cross swords with the notorious gentleman burglar.
