Summary:
"Un crimen imposible, un demonio
y
un viaje maldito. Corre
el
año 1634
y
Samuel Pipps,
el
detective más famoso del mundo, está prisionero en
el
Saardam rumbo a Ámsterdam, donde se enfrenta a un juicio
y
a la horca. Junto a él viajan su fiel amigo, Arent Hayes, decidido a probar la inocencia de Pipps,
y
Sara Wessel, la esposa del gobernador general de Batavia, en las Indias Orientales. Súbitamente, una serie de misteriosos sucesos desconcierta a la tripulación
y
a los pasajeros: un extraño símbolo aparece en una vela, un leproso fallecido ronda por
el
barco
y
varios animales aparecen sacrificados.
Y
, por si fuera poco, una voz aterroriza a los pasajeros entre las sombras con una terrible profecía: van a ser testigo de tres milagros diabólicos.
El
primero, una persecución inverosímil;
el
segundo, un robo inconcebible;
el
tercero, un asesinato imposible de cometer. Con Pipps entre rejas, Arent
y
Sara tendrán que resolver solos
el
misterio que amenaza con enviarlos a todos a las profundidades del océano."--Amazon.
"Samuel Pipps is the greatest detective of his day...but now he's a prisoner, accused of an unknown crime by one of the world's most powerful men. Along with his faithful sidekick, Arent Hayes, they're sailing back to Amsterdam from the East Indies, where he'll stand trial. But no sooner are they out to sea than devilry begins to blight the voyage. Still shackled in his cell, Pipps sends Hayes to solve a mystery that connects every passenger on board. All hope is pinned on Hayes solving the mystery, but when he goes missing, Pipps is faced with the most dangerous puzzle of his career...All the while, voices whisper to him in the dark. But are those whispers clues? Warnings? Or the devil himself..."--Provided by publisher.
