"Wanneer een liefhebber van zeldzame boeken speurt naar de geheimen van twee uitzonderlijke boeken, laat hij een spoor van lijken na."
"Lucas Corso is a bibliophilic mercenary in the middle of two searches. He needs to prove if a manuscript of The Three Musketeers is genuine. He must also find the solution to the enigma of a diabolic book, burned with the printer in 1667, and of which only two other copies are known to exist. The search will drag Lucas, and the reader, from archives of the Holy Office to books condemned by the Vatican, from dusty old bookstores to the most select libraries owned by important international collectors. Directed by Roman Polanski, El club Dumas was made into a movie, The Ninth Gate."
