THE LIST OF SEVEN

Book ID/图书代码： 04300012B53873

English Summary/英文概要： On Christmas Day 1884, a desperate plea from a mysterious woman leads Arthur Conan Doyle - struggling physician, aspiring writer, and part-time demystifier of the occult - to a seance in London’s East End and into a fiendish and deadly trap. Stunned by a shocking display of black magic, Doyle witnesses a murder, nearly falling victim himself before being rescued by a secretive stranger: Jack Sparks, a man who claims to be special agent to Queen Victoria. He tells Doyle that he has been targeted by a diabolical coven of Satanists - the Dark Brotherhood. As they track their attackers across the length and breadth of Britain, assailed by forces of darkness both human and supernatural, Conan Doyle and Sparks unmask a terrifying conspiracy that threatens not only the Crown but the very fabric of modern civilization. Their only clue: a list of seven names, the leaders of the Brotherhood. Skeptical by nature and profession, Doyle labors to prove that the events he has witnessed - horrifying visions, zombies, ghouls, molecular alteration - are elaborate ruses with logical explanations. But if so, why? Simply because Doyle’s anti-occultist writings, never even published, have inadvertently exposed the Brotherhood’s intentions? Who is the elusive, seemingly superhuman mastermind behind the Seven? Most important, as Doyle continues to put his life in the hands of Jack Sparks, the question persists: Can Sparks be trusted?

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 1884年的圣诞夜，一名神秘女子的强烈恳求使得阿瑟•柯南•道尔来到了伦敦东区的一场降神会，并毫不知情地落入了一个可怕的致命陷阱。当时的阿瑟•柯南•道尔是一名上进的医生、一名充满抱负的有志作家以及一名业余神秘学解惑人。然而这场有关于黑魔法的惊人展示也同时让道尔目睹了一场谋杀，若非一名神秘人的解救，道尔或许也早已沦为这场谋杀的受害者。神秘男子杰克•斯巴克自称是维多利亚女王的秘密特工，他向道尔透露自己正被一群穷凶极恶的邪恶团体--暗黑兄弟会所追杀。就在柯南•道尔与斯巴克斯在全英国范围内追踪袭击者的过程中，他们遭到了来自人类与超自然生物的黑暗夹击，并无意间揭开了一场可怕阴谋的面纱，这一阴谋不仅将威胁到英国政府的存亡，同时还将动摇现代文明的根基。而他们唯一的线索只有一个:一张写有兄弟会七名核心人物的名单。出于本能与职业习惯，道尔对此深感怀疑，他努力的想要证明自己所目睹的那些可怕场景、丧尸、食尸鬼以及分子异变只不过是设计巧妙的诡计，而并非难以用逻辑推理得出的神秘事物。但倘若果真如此，设计者又用心何在？难道只是单纯的因为道尔的那些从未被出版过的反神秘学作品在无意间揭露了兄弟会的意图？而究竟谁才是那隐藏在七名核心人物背后的神秘幕后黑手？更重要的是，当道尔一次次的让斯巴克斯掌握自己的生死命运，一个更大的问题不断浮现：斯巴克斯究竟能否信任？（DC）
