Krátky popis
Sherlock-esque crime set in early 20th century London, packed with
action and martial arts elements, this is the first book in a
series to feature a daring, opium-addicted Chinese judge and his
shy, academic sidekick, solving fiendish mysteries among the
Chinese community in London’s Limehouse district. For fans of Guy
Ritchie’s&,nbsp,Sherlock Holmes&,nbsp,films, this stunning,
martial-arts series opener by a powerhouse duo of authors is at
once comfortingly familiar and tantalizingly new. Two unlikely
allies race through the cobbled streets of 1920s London in search
of a killer targeting Chinese immigrants. London, 1924. When shy
academic Lao She meets larger-than-life Judge Dee Ren Jie, his life
abruptly turns from books and lectures to daring chases and narrow
escapes. Dee has come to London to investigate the murder of a man
he’d known during World War I when serving with the Chinese Labour
Corps. No sooner has Dee interviewed the grieving widow than
another dead body turns up. Then another. All stabbed to death with
a butterfly sword. Will Dee and Lao be able to connect the threads
of the murders?or are they next in line as victims? John Shen Yen
Nee and SJ Rozan’s groundbreaking collaboration blends traditional
gong’an crime fiction and the most iconic aspects of the Sherlock
Holmes canon. Dee and Lao encounter the aristocracy and the
street-child telegraph, churchmen and thieves in this clever,
cinematic mystery that’s as thrilling and visual as an action film,
as imaginative and transporting as a timeless classic.
