Synopsis

Défaits lors de leur combat contre Lord Black Fowl et laissés pour morts, Jules Verne et Arthur Conan Doyle refusent de s’avouer vaincus.

En compagnie de leur garde du corps, la séduisante Amelia Earhart, et bien décidés à découvrir qui se cache sous le masque du Corbeau, ils décident de donner un nouveau tournant à leur enquête.

Mais dans un monde où le papier est une arme de destruction massive, leur ennemi fait figure de dieu vivant… Et toute la question est de savoir si ces deux génies de la littérature seront de taille pour affronter un adversaire qui a toujours deux coups d’avance et semble tout connaître d’eux…

As high society's social calendar opens up and the Season draws to a close, London is gripped by fear. Someone has taken to stalking women of the night and painting the town red...in their blood. The name on everyone's lips seems to be "Jack the Ripper" - and as a result, the name on Queen Victoria's lips is Phantomhive. Summoned to London to clean up the mess created by this madman, Ciel Phantomhive arrives with Sebastian, his extraordinary butler, at his side to pour him tea, polish his silver, and...investigate a serial killer. And with the aid (and occasional interference) of a few of the Phantomhive house's numerous acquaintances, little stands in the way of the young earl getting to the bottom of this mystery. However, one question remains...can he handle the shattering truth behind it?
