THE DOLOCHER

Book ID/图书代码: 01890016B87717

English Summary/英文概要: 1756, Black Dog Prison, Dublin.

Notorious murderer Olocher commits suicide in mysterious circumstances on the eve of his execution, leaving Dublin in a state of terror. A creature stalks the streets at night attacking women, possessed by Olocher’s dark murderous spirit. The Dolocher is on the loose...

At least that’s the story down-at-heel writer Solomon Fish peddles in his broadsheets, and the people of Dublin can’t get enough of his gruesome tales. To Solomon, it’s only an ordinary man playing a tasteless trick, a sensational story that will soon blow over. But when the Dolocher starts killing and Solomon himself is set upon by the beast, he starts to have doubts.

With the help of his daring landlady, ship’s surgeon-turned-apothecary Merriment O’Grady, the duo are determined to unmask Dolocher. Yet they soon find themselves torn between reason and superstition as they strive to solve the mystery. But are they hunting the Dolocher, or is it hunting them?

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 1756年,都柏林的黑狗监狱里,臭名昭著的杀人犯Olocher在对他执行死刑的当晚神秘自杀,整个都柏林陷入了恐怖的状态。Olocher的恶灵附身在一个神秘生物身上,这个生物开始在夜间袭击走在街道上的妇女。这个被称为Dolocher的生物完全失控了……

这是三流作家Solomon Fish的新小说——都柏林的人们很喜欢他的恐怖故事。但对于Solomon而言,这不过是一个无聊的把戏,又一个耸人听闻的故事,很快就会被人遗忘。但Dolocher真的开始杀害路人,Solomon对自己的设置开始感到疑惑。

在他大胆的房东、学医出生的药剂师Merriment O’Grady的帮助下,他们两人决心揭露Dolocher的真面目。然而,在他们努力解开这个谜的时候,他们很快发现自己已经无法分辨理性和迷信之间的界限。究竟是他们在狩猎Dolocher,还是他们正在遭到Dolocher的捕杀?(LYR)
