Lupin IV: Jewel of the Seine by MLebl4nc
27 parts Complete Mature
Criminal? Arsène Lupin the 4th would never consider himself a criminal... well not in the traditional sense, after all he does have quite the proclivity for grand larceny. He prefers the term, "Gentleman Burglar." One who stylishly steals rare and priceless items from those undeserving to behold them, no doubt breaking a few hearts along the way. But when, "The Jewel of the Seine", a priceless red Ruby, appears in an auction house in Paris, Lupin sees an opportunity to finally live up to his family name. And when world renowned private investigator, Amelia E. Holmes arrives on the scene, the ingredients for a truly great adventure have all fallen into place. Beauty and Bloodshed, Romance and Betrayal, and at the center of it all? A Jewel, a pickpocket, and an international crime syndicate. Truly it is the perfect initiation for a master thief, wouldn't you say?

As Detective Drew Lucy typed up the report on the Waterton case the pretty ankle slipped into his line of sight. It was shaped like trouble. The chief's sixteen-year-old daughter Millie was worried about her brother, Ike, who had started to disappear some nights. The chief could fire Drew for messing with family business, but Drew reluctantly agrees to tail Ike. The trail leads to a speakeasy and the mushrooming business of organized crime during Prohibition in Chicago. Clues from the Ebony Gardens murder point to the same gang, but the gangsters can smell Drew coming, and bullets are cheap. By the time Drew enters the seductive orbit of a mink-eyed vixen addicted to risk, he's in over his head. If he isn't shot full of daylight by gangster tommy guns, he'll drown in Bianca's perfumed embrace. It's enough to make a gumshoe readjust his fedora. ----- This noir flavored detective yarn is set 100 years back in time. It's a bit grittier than my usual breezy output. This story is basically clean and I did not flag it as mature. However, darker human failings (alcohol use, sexual desire, and violence) drive the plot. I don't dwell on those aspects, but it's definitely a story for grownups. The intended audience is new adult or adult. Winner! 2022 Amby Awards, Mystery and Thriller category. Winner! 3rd place in the Ballsy Tea Awards 2022, Action and Adventure category.

And Sherlock struggles to learn. ...and in the process, sometimes taking unusual paths. Please be aware that english is not my first language.

A Blake Barnes Series #2 She had gotten herself head over heels in this and now she couldn't turn back. Rowan was right. She would be alone in this, no one there to help her. The worst gut feeling came when she realized the car behind her was following her. Gripping the steering wheel, Blake inspected the car. It looked like a family car, not something more expensive. That didn't matter to her, what mattered was the fact that it kept tailgating her. "Not yet," Blake begged as she grabbed hold of the stick. The car suddenly turned off to a park on the side of the road, revealing a family of four getting out. Throwing her head back, Blake groaned. How was she suppose to get these formulas to the Professor? People would be after her...Her paranoia was starting to grow.
