內容簡介

大唐狄公案《猴子和老虎》

此書包括兩個偵探故事,分別為 "The Morning of theMonkey" 晨猴(斷指記) "The Night of the Tiger" 暮虎(飛虎團),是以「狄公」為主角的偵探推理小說,其原型為唐朝宰相狄仁傑。

在第一個故事中,一隻長臂猿在狄公官邸的畫廊中掉落了一顆祖母綠寶石,導致法官在樹林中發現了一具殘缺不全的奇怪屍體;在第二個故事裡,狄公在前往就職新職位的途中,因洪水而與護衛隊分開了,之後他被困在一座被兇猛土匪包圍的大鄉間別墅裡,在那裡他遇到了一個可以幫助他解開謎團的幽靈……。

The Monkey and The Tiger includes two detective stories, "The Morning of the Monkey" and "The Night of the Tiger." In the first, a gibbon drops an emerald in the open gallery of Dee's official residence, leading the judge to discover a strangely mutilated body in the woods—and how it got there. In the second, Dee is traveling to the imperial capital to assume a new position when he is separated from his escort by a flood. Marooned in a large country house surrounded by fierce bandits, Dee confronts an apparition that helps him solve a mystery.
