It takes a thief 19688/21/2023 ![]() Mundy was not about to stay behind bars for the full sentence. His sentence was 1-10 years at San Jubal prison. While some say that they framed him, Mundy himself talked about how Noah Bain and his younger protege Wally Powers has played him beautifully and when he walked into the snare, he was truly trapped. ![]() This term devised just for this refers to the time when two New York City detectives, tired of the way Mundy was getting away each time, came up with a sting operation to trap the daring thief. He goes the same places the jetsetters haunt not only because he enjoys that way of life but also because that is where the treasures are.Īt least he did until the Fall. He is very much a ladies man and good enough at it that the women from his past remember him with smiles and sighs. He is described as "extremely handsome with a planed, regular featured face, light brown hair and cool blue eyes that seemed to question everything in sight." In another passage he is said to be "a leashed dynamo". At least until the Fall.Īs the series begins, Mundy is in his late 30's. And they were many and they were profitable and Alexander Mundy lived a life and earned a reputation that made his father proud and himself very content. Just as the Panther hunted by himself, so did the younger Mundy go off for his own catches. There was no animosity between the two - they just knew that each man was a loner. When the official educations came to an end, Mundy went out into the world to make his own way. The young Mundy was smart enough to recognize the opportunities presenting themselves and at these schools he studied hard and learned a great deal - usually absorbing a wide assortment of knowledge he was planning to use in his own life of crime. The profits of this lucrative albeit illegal lifestyle was enough to afford the very best of anything and that extended to the finest schools in Europe for his son. He was so incredibly good that the nickname of 'the Panther' was pinned on his exploits to be able to give the semblance of an identity. He was good enough that most of the people who fell prey to his skills never knew who had hit them, they just knew very valuable trinkets and wall decorations were no longer where they once were and there was no clue left behind. He was taught by his father, a man described by Mundy as 'the greatest thief who ever was' and there is a lot more than just filial pride. Mundy comes about his larcinous nature 'honestly'. He also has the audacity to use them all whenever and however he chooses and he has chosen enough times to keep in luxury for many years. He has hands that can take a bracelet off the most delicate wrist, ears that can hear silent tumblers fall into place, eyes that spot all the weak spots while casing a target, a brain that can change a scheme in mid play. Just as the latter was a genius in several different disciplines, so too is Mundy a maestro at various forms of larceny. To call him just a thief, though, is like calling Michaelangelo a good artist. ![]()
