{"product_id":"raffles-e-w-hornung-9781667662985","title":"Raffles: Further Adventures of the Amateur Cracksman","description":"\u003cp\u003eA celebrated cricketer by day and master burglar by night returns to a fog-draped London where fortune and risk walk arm in arm. Guided by a devoted confidant, he slips through clubrooms and townhouses to test locks, nerves, and the limits of loyalty. Eight linked tales track audacious thefts, duels of wits with rivals, and close brushes with the law-each caper sharpening the costs of a double life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA jeweled gift meant for a monarch, a safe opened under a watchman's nose, an encounter with an old romance, and a showdown with a fellow thief push the pair toward reckoning. Beyond the gaslight, a call to serve on foreign soil drives the final story's turn from crime to courage, reframing what honor can mean off the playing field. Written with brisk wit and an eye for social masks, these stories blend crime, adventure, and moral hazard, capturing the glamour and danger of late-Victorian high life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e E.
