Summary

Drift off to sleep tonight with another story from The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsene Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar by Maurice Leblanc. You might have seen the series on Netflix inspired by the character Arsene Lupin. In this episode, many years ago, the Queen's necklace was stolen from the Count and Countess Dreux-Subisse, and the mystery was never solved. Perhaps a dinner guest might be able to shed some light on the case?
