El 9 de junio de 1865, mientras viaja en tren a Londres con su amante secreta, Charles Dickens -a la altura de sus poderes y popularidad, es el mas famoso y exitoso novelista en el mundo y tal vez de la historia- entra en un desastre que cambio para siempre su vida. Ha comenzado Dickens a vivir una oscura doble vida despues del accidente? Fueron sus incursiones nocturnas en los peores tugurios de Londres y la profundizacion de su obsesion con los cadaveres, criptas, asesinatos, antros de opio, el uso de piscinas de cal para disolver organos, y un sotano oculto debajo de Londres para investigacion ... o algo mas aterrador? / On June 9, 1865, while traveling by train to London with his secret mistress, 53-year-old Charles Dickens--at the height of his powers and popularity, the most famous and successful novelist in the world and perhaps in the history of the world--hurtled into a disaster that changed his life forever. Did Dickens begin living a dark double life after the accident? Were his nightly forays into the worst slums of London and his deepening obsession with corpses, crypts, murder, opium dens, the use of lime pits to dissolve bodies, and a hidden subterranean London mere research or something more terrifying? Just as he did in The Terror, Dan Simmons draws impeccably from history to create a gloriously engaging and terrifying narrative. Based on the historical details of Charles Dickens's life and narrated by Wilkie Collins (Dickens's friend, frequent collaborator, and Salieri-style secret rival), DROOD explores the still-unsolved mysteries of the famous author's last years and may provide the key to Dickens's final, unfinished work: The Mystery of Edwin Drood. Chilling, haunting, and utterly original, DROOD is Dan Simmons at his powerful best.
