  • The Amateur Cracksman

    by Ernest William Hornung ...
    THE IDES OF MARCH It was half-past twelve when I returned to the Albany as a last desperate resort. The scene of my disaster was much as I had left it.

Raffles himself had merely discarded his dining jacket for one of his ... Read more

    by Ernest William Hornung ...
    THE BELLE OF TOORAK "And you're quite sure the place doesn't choke you off?" "The place? Why, I'd marry you for it alone. It's just sweet!" Of course it was nothing of the kind.

  • Raffles, Further Adventures of the Amateur Cracksman

    by Ernest William Hornung ...
    NO SINECURE I am still uncertain which surprised me more, the telegram calling my attention to the advertisement, or the advertisement itself. The telegram is before me as I write.
