The Volume I of the Bluthund Collection is an anthology that includes three psychological and historical thrillers written by Cedric Daurio sharing, albeit partially, their characters. The three books are separate pieces and can be read in any order, although the author prefers the one given in this book.
The synopsis of the books are as follows.
I Ching and Murder
An old Chinese scholar living in Buenos Aires instructs a young niece and her boyfriend to interpret the I Ching (the Chinese oracle and book of wisdom).
In China a powerful drug dealer weaves a complex plot to oust his competitors from world markets from his new base in South America. The Chinese triads and the Japanese Yakuza get entangled in this complex weft.
For obscure reasons their actions seriously endanger the whole scholars family. I Ching guides them to face the threat. Vibrant thriller in its entirety.
Blood Runes
In the eleventh century, after leaving the misty shores of Markland a Viking drakkar is dragged to the Yucatan Peninsula where the Mayan culture flourishes. By marrying the daughter of a tribal chief, Bjarni becomes aware of a treasure hidden in the ruins of an abandoned temple. Years later he decides to return to Greenland but his ship sinks. Upon reaching land he leaves runic inscriptions referring to the Mayan treasures and to intriguing ruins of a city of white men above the Arctic Circle, site of the legendary Thule according to clairvoyants linked to Nazism. At the present time a group of researchers from a virtual society is following in his footsteps but must face a powerful group seeking to restore the Thousand Year Reich on the one hand, and looters of cultural treasures on the other.
The Agartha Star
After the Bolshevik revolution of 1917 a Russian nobleman surrounded by an aura of mystical warrior continues the struggle in Mongolia and manages to restore the monarchy in that republic. Before falling into the hands of the Communists, he sends the Mongolian treasure to save it from his enemies. In the current age the members of an informal community of researchers called Bluthund keep track of that treasure in the Gobi Desert facing attacks from fearsome Mongol bandits, terrible sandstorms and persecutions of another rival organization working in the shadows. The findings in the Gobi lead them to a much more decisive search in Tibet with amazing and disturbing results. A vibrant thriller that will keep you in suspense until the end.
