Summary
In Book Four of Richard Foreman's brilliant Raffles series, the gentleman thief returns in two scintillating stories that are sure to delight fans of both the original and the new stories. Raffles: Caught Out follows on from the events of Raffles: A Perfect Wicket.
Harry "Bunny" Manders returns to London to find a message in his apartment from Raffles, summoning him to the Albany. Their mutual friend "Ranji", the great batsman of the age, has been compromised by a beautiful and mysterious widow, Iris Adams. Their task is to retrieve a ruby ring in her possession - and if diplomacy fails Raffles vows to use his skills as a cracksman. Yet has he met his match in the captivating Iris Adams who, like Raffles, possesses a secret? Will our hero finally be caught out?
Raffles: Stumped takes place before Raffles: The Gentleman Thief. Although Harry "Bunny" Manders has worked a few jobs with Raffles he still finds himself in debt. Bunny must pay off a loan to an unscrupulous moneylender, Alexander "Shylock" Cardinal, or else lose all of his assets, or worse his life. Bunny puts his faith in his best friend to save the day but can even Raffles pull off a job at such short notice - and raise such a large sum of money?

Simple Story
No exciting derring-do in this tale, it’s quite pedestrian and makes me wonder if it’s a filler/link to another story.
Also, for the length of time that these two have been up to their antics, Bunny makes a rookie mistake which, of course drives the story, but makes you consider him the weakest link!
This is the last of the free titles and I’m not encouraged to progress any further as, paying for 35 minutes of nothing much would not be value for money.
I am however, intrigued to read the original Raffles stories.
