This collection of ten remarkable stories have Bunny telling tales of encounters from various times in his and Raffles’ lives. Bunny bemoans the breakdown of his engagement in the book Out of Paradise, which he called off to save his fiancé the shame following his fall from social grace. In an effort to cheer him melancholy, Bunny suggests that the two rob the wealthy politician’s estate. Following this depressing narrative, The Rest Cure is a peaceful story that centers on Bunny and Raffles as they hide away to avoid an incident with Inspector Mackenzie.Although Raffles and Bunny have repeatedly shown that they are an unbreakable team, Bunny is excited for the chance to show in A Bad Night that he can function independently. When Bunny tells the story of a time when Raffles’ pride got the best of him and put him in a well-prepared trap, he remembers both his partner’s good and bad attributes.A Thief in the Night by E.W. Hornung is a fascinating and entertaining collection of the exploits of the two legendary thieves, told via the hilarious and thoughtful narration of Bunny.
