A Thief in the Night by E. W. Hornung audiobook. Genre: mystery In Edward W. Hornung's A Thief in the Night, London's most charming criminal steps out of the gentlemen's clubs and onto moonlit streets where reputation is a mask and burglary is an art. A. J. Raffles is a celebrated sportsman by day, a master thief by night, and he never works alone for long: his devoted friend and reluctant accomplice Bunny Manders tells the tale with equal parts admiration and dread. Together they navigate drawing rooms, hotel corridors, and quiet suburban houses, hunting not only for jewels and cash but for the perfect escape from suspicion. Each new scheme tests their nerve and their friendship, as close calls multiply and the law closes in through wary detectives and inconvenient witnesses. Yet the deeper conflict is not simply man versus police, but conscience versus desire: Bunny is pulled between loyalty and fear, while Raffles treats danger like a game with rules only he understands. Witty, tense, and steeped in late-Victorian and Edwardian atmosphere, this is a classic portrait of crime told from the criminal's side.
