van Gulik Robert

    Robert van Gulik es célebre por sus relatos de detectives protagonizados por el magistrado Juez Dee. Inspiradas en antiguos casos criminales chinos, sus obras dan vida a un juez del siglo VII que resuelve misterios a través de la lógica y una profunda comprensión de la naturaleza humana. Van Gulik combina magistralmente la autenticidad histórica con tramas de suspense, creando narrativas cautivadoras tanto para los aficionados al misterio como a la historia. Sus creaciones originales extienden la tradición literaria china, ofreciendo a los lectores una ventana única al antiguo país.

    The Lacquer Screen
    • Early in his career, Judge Dee visits a senior magistrate who shows him a beautiful lacquer screen on which a scene of lovers has been mysteriously altered to show the man stabbing his lover. The magistrate fears he is losing his mind and will murder his own wife. Meanwhile, a banker has inexplicably killed himself, and a lovely lady has allowed Dee's lieutenant, Chiao Tai, to believe she is a courtesan. Dee and Chiao Tai go incognito among a gang of robbers to solve this mystery, and find the leader of the robbers is more honorable than the magistrate. -- Amazon.com
