Publisher Description
Poor Bunny! A bad evening at cards leaves him without a penny, and desperate to preserve his good name. In his desperation he comes to A.J. Raffles, his old school friend, hoping for a solution.
Well... Raffles has one, but not perhaps the one Bunny was thinking of... for Raffles too, is desperately hard up, and has a novel solution to both their troubles: Burgulary!
The first in Hornung's Raffles: The Gentlemen Thief series, The Amateur Cracksman is a collection of eight short stories centered around the titular thief as narrated by his erstwhile compatriot bunny, from their first theft to a possible final farewell on a German steamship in the Mediterranean.
Narrated by Michael Ward.
