Description

Qui n'a pas entendu parler de Sweeney Todd, le plus démoniaque barbier que Londres ait jamais abrité ? Au XVIIIe siècle, la ville, perpétuellement enfouie sous le smog, est le plus lugubre lieu qu'il soit. Repaire des plus vils malfaiteurs, elle est avant tout la capitale du crime et de la perdition, où les braves gens sont les victimes de la bonne fortune qui sourit aux truands. Lorsque l'on y apprend la disparition d'un jeune marin, récemment revenu d'un long périple aux Indes, tous ses amis se mettent à sa recherche. Les pistes semblent toutes mener près du salon d'un barbier, aux abords de Fleet Street. Un certain Sweeney Todd... Découvrez l'un des plus fameux penny dreadful et l'une des principales sources du Dracula de Bram Stoker. Dans une traduction exclusive en France, le lecteur pourra enfin découvrir le récit original et intégral du légendaire tueur en série de Londres, et frémir au coeur d'une cité londonienne fourmillante d'horreurs et d'épouvante.
