'The Wise Princess' is a take on the traditional Russian fairy tale of the frog princess. Three princes are instructed by their father, the king, to fire their arrows at random and marry whichever maidens they land near to. The youngest son's arrow lands in a marsh next to a frog. But the frog turns out to be a wise princess in disguise - and when the prince sees the princess in her true form he falls in love with her. One night when the princess is not wearing her frog skin, the princes takes it and burns it. 

Nepolapitelný, šarmantní a poněkud uličnický Arsène Lupin se setkává s legendárním logikem Sherlockem Holmesem. Střet a souboj dvou osobností spustí řetězec napínavých událostí, v nichž se zablýskne vzácný modrý diamant, ale nebude chybět ani pořádná dávka mužské cti, dámského půvabu, intrik a překvapivých a nápaditých zvratů. Lakonický a noblesní humor, který je pro postavu Arsèna Lupina příznačný, ještě vynikne v kontrastu s metodickým Holmesem a jeho železnou logikou a téměř zázračnou předvídavostí. Souboj dvou nejdůmyslnějších a nejkreativnějších mužů, kteří ačkoli každý na jiné straně zákona, zkříží samozřejmě zbraně podle pravidel dvorské etikety, může začít.

This revised edition of World War II presents the complete story of America's war in Europe and the Pacific.
