Eric Throckmorton Danforth is Britain's most suave, highly controversial gentleman thief and the embodiment of a number of cracksmen stealing as many objects and suspicious items from various safes. Not surprisingly, Danforth meets Scotland Yard's most wanted investigator: Lloyd Drake. Together, the head-to-head team of cracksmen is on a mission to unravel certain suspects' identities and bring the crooks, henchmen, and other most wanted male criminals who steal countless objects to justice through the eyes of Brody Masterson, a London Royal Police marksman trying to track down the pickpockets and other men committing masterpiece-style robbery.

DANFORTH is Mark Watson's most anticipated and sought-after crime thriller, and readers of acclaimed detective mysteries will enjoy this hilarious, riveting and most conspiring novel packed with high-speed chases, murder-oriented suspense and amazing pranks that all make the novel a fun and incredible read everyone can't put down.

As with all professional cracksmen having conducted investigations with the varied suspects who get caught stealing all mundane objects, Danforth's missions are groundbreaking, proving Watson has crafted a tale of suspense, intrigue, romance, and self-robbery. DANFORTH is one of the most acclaimed thriller novels the Son of Wat has written, telling compelling stories of thieves, burglars and cracksmen chasing one suspects after another.

This riveting tale of robbery and self discovery has made Mark Watson the funniest master storyteller and satirist, with tens of billions of Watson fans who have experienced one mystery thriller after another, until now.

Experience ground breaking, fun loving suspense when you read DANFORTH.

Remember, when solving a mystery ain't being a crime, Watson is the man with the practical joke track record of success.

I don't take this for granted. This is my first ever story so please don't be too harsh on me but of course I always look forward to receive constructive criticism. I've never really written a story before except for the stuff I wrote for school which was nothing like this. My nationality is German so I'm sorry for any spelling mistakes or if a sentence doesn't make that much sense but I'm quite good in English so this shouldn't become a big problem (I also proofread everything). I hope you enjoy the fanfiction :)

Lupin IV: Jewel of the Seine by MLebl4nc

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?

Password Incorrect by Quidam13

I can't keep the smile off my face as I take my seat on the plane. I slide my bag under the seat and lean back. I close my eyes and let a blissful smile grace my face. He said I wouldn't be able to run. As if. I'm vaguely aware of someone taking the seat next to mine, but I pay no attention to said person. "So where we headed?" I choke on my own spit as my eyes fly open and whirl around to face the owner of the familiar voice. His eyes are hidden behind those damn sunglasses and a rather smug smile graces his face. I continue choking and he does nothing other than flip through a magazine. That smug smile never leaving his face. "You still haven't answered the question." "To hell." I finally manage to choke out. "Awesome," He flips a page in the magazine, "It's about time I returned home. You know, bodies to burn, lost souls to torture, I've missed it. It'll be fun." *** Nicolette Moore. A name law enforcement agencies across the world know. Though no one's ever seen the face of the world's greatest thief and hacker, everyone knows who she is by name. Nicky. She's an absolute genius. Once upon a time she wasn't the best person in the world. When her family was struggling she made some bad choices to help them through it, but when she tried to get out she got pulled in deeper. Ryder Stevenson. He's the son of the director of the FBI, and an FBI Agent himself. He's the one who brings in Nicky to get her protection from the people chasing after her. He's also the one, who gets assigned to protect her. Neither one of them like each other, and they can't go five minutes without getting in a full blown argument. She's constantly ditching him only for him to show up later and prove to her he's not that easy to get rid of. They're stuck with each other whether they like it or not. But he doesn't know who she really is. What will he do when he finds out? An FBI Agent protecting THE Hacker. The one the FBI have been after for years...this just screams chaos.

Homicide Detective Ned Danes discovers that an ambitious Deputy D.A. has concealed evidence of an accused murderer's innocence in order to secure a headline-grabbing conviction. Danes torpedoes the corrupt Deputy D.A.'s case, and for his honesty, Danes is exiled to the tiny, basement office of the Cold Case Squad. Working in his forgotten outpost Danes becomes obsessed with finding the real killer whom the Deputy D.A.’s scheme has allowed to run free. But, just as he seems to be closing in, Danes receives a plea for help from an old friend. FBI agent Phillip Abbott has been put on leave for his last sixty days before his forced retirement. He has that long to catch a drug-cartel hit man whose specialty is murdering entire families. Completely alone, Abbott needs a courageous cop like Ned Danes to back him up. While Danes knows that Abbott has a seventeen-year-old adopted daughter, it is only after Danes agrees to help catch the killer that he discovers that the hit man murdered the girl’s entire family. Abbott promised her that he would get the monster no matter what it took and Danes soon learns that Abbott is willing to do anything, including breaking the law and possibly going to prison, to keep that promise. And after Danes and Abbot do all that, Ned still has a killer of his own to catch.
