Publisher's Synopsis

¿Puede un libro ser investigado policialmente como si de un crimen se tratara? Lucas Corso, mercenario de la bibliofilia, cazador de libros por cuenta ajena, se enfrenta a esa pregunta cuando recibe un doble encargo de sus clientes: autentificar un manuscrito de Los tres mosqueteros y descifrar el enigma de un extraño libro, quemado en 1667 con el hombre que lo imprimió. La peligrosa indagación le llevará de los archivos del Santo Oficio a los libros condenados, de las polvorientas librerìas de viejo a las más selectas bibliotecas de los coleccionistas internacionales.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONLucas Corso, an authority on rare books, makes his living tracking down valuable items for rich bibliophiles. His latest assignment, deciphering the mystery of a 17th century book that legend has was co-written by Satan, a book for which only three copies are known to exist, has become a very dangerous adventure. As if this weren't enough, a handwritten chapter of Alexandre Dumas' The Three Musketeers comes into play. The stories intermingle and result in a page-turning thriller distinctive of Perez Reverte's writing. The book was taken to the big screen in a movie titled The Ninth Gate by renowned director Roman Polanski..
