Book description
El relato comienza cuando unos investigadores descubren que en tierras bretonas hay un cementerio lleno de calaveras, y encuentran el rastro de una antigua maldición que, según parece, fue hecha para intentar destruir a una familia.Inmersos en lo incierto, la superstición y la creencia en fantasmas, hay un personaje del que nadie se atreve a hablar: el sacerdote negro, que perteneció a la familia maldita y murió en muy extrañas circunstancias. Así es que los lugareños, fieles fervorosos de la superstición, creen que el sacerdote negro ha vuelto para vengarse.Las apariciones sobrenaturales parecen probar la realidad objetiva y generan un ingenioso giro en los acontecimientos. Anímate a descubrir si la mariposa de la noche que se posa en la ventana es o no la mensajera de la muerte...Robert William Chambers (1865 - 1933) nació en Brooklyn en el seno de una familia burguesa. Estudió en el New York Art Students League y en 1886 se mudó a París, donde convivió con el movimiento artístico bohemio, y donde expuso su obra en el salón de 1889. A su regreso a Nueva York, vendió ilustraciones a las principales revistas del momento. No obstante, a pesar de considerar la escritura como algo secundario, su pasión por contar historias lo llevó a publicar su primer libro, In the quarter en 1984 al cual le siguió El Rey de Amarillo, que lo convirtió en un maestro del cuento moderno de terror.Fue un escritor prolífico y sus obras alcanzaron un gran prestigio, llegando algunas a ser best-sellers. El dinero que obtuvo de ello lo invirtió en sus otras aficiones, entre las que se encontraba coleccionar mariposas y porcelana china. Chambers falleció a los sesenta y ocho años tras ser operado de una dolencia intestinal.
