Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Astraia Holmes, sister of Sherlock, is baffled by a series of bizarre and brutal murders committed by a dragon-like assailant, and desperately wishing to impress her brother and solve the crimes she teams up with a mysterious and brilliant young woman, Madeleine Barquist. Sherlock suspects an ancient malevolence at work and he fears for Astraia's safety. The signs point to a Chinese Dragon God Cult known as the Ya Zi, a warrior society originally formed two thousand years ago to assassinate enemies of the Emperor.

Do you have any theories about what could have created them?I have no idea, I said, moving my finger over the lowest furrow, carved perhaps a half-inch deep into the brick. But I don't believe I saw them when I was here last week.No, I don't expect you did, she said. These gouges are fresh. You can see the brick dust from them on the ground, still unspoilt by the alleyway filth.I lowered my own lantern to examine the ground, and saw that she was right. What type of instrument was used to make such delineations? I asked. A knife or sword.…
