Product Information

La gran novela de Arturo Perez-Reverte que abrio el camino del exito internacional a los thrillers inspirados en el mundo de los libros.?Puede un libro ser investigado policialmente como si de un crimen se tratara, utilizando como pistas sus paginas, papel, grabados y marcas de impresion, en un apasionante recorrido de tres siglos?. Lucas Corso, mercenario de la bibliofilia, cazador de libros por cuenta ajena, debe encontrar respuesta a esa pregunta cuando recibe un doble encargo de sus clientes: autentificar un manuscrito de Los tres mosqueteros y descifrar el enigma de un extrano libro, quemado en 1667 con el hombre que lo imprimio. La indagacion arrastra a Corso -y con el, irremediablemente, al lector- a una peligrosa busqueda que lo llevara de los archivos del Santo Oficio a los libros condenados, de las polvorientas librerias de viejo a las mas selectas bibliotecas de los coleccionistas internacionales. Construida con excepcional talento narrativo, El club Dumas situa pieza a pieza una trama excitante, minuciosa y compleja, donde se dan cita los ingredientes de la novela clasica por entregas, los relatos policiacos y de misterio, los juegos de adivinacion y las tecnicas del folletin de aventuras. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Lucas Corso is a book detective, a middle-aged mercenary hired to hunt down rare editions for wealthy and unscrupulous clients. When a well-known bibliophile is found dead, leaving behind part of the original manuscript of Alexandre Dumas's The Three Musketeers, Corso is brought in to authenticate the fragment. He is soon drawn into a swirling plot involving devil worship, occult practices, and swashbuckling derring-do among a cast of characters bearing a suspicious resemblance to those of Dumas's masterpiece. Aided by a mysterious beauty named for a Conan Doyle heroine, Corso travels from Madrid to Toledo to Paris on the killer's trail in this twisty intellectual romp through the book world.
