Editor's Note:
Intitulée Le Chapelet de jade, la longue nouvelle qui donne son titre à ce recueil est dédiée à Robert Van Gulik, le célèbre écrivain orientaliste qui a créé le personnage du juge Ti. Toute la ville en parle avec des frémissements d'horreur : dans la Soukharevka, célèbre quartier de Moscou, un antiquaire spécialisé dans la vente d'objets asiatiques a été retrouvé sauvagement assassiné. Le criminel l'a monstrueusement torturé avant de retourner son magasin de fond en comble, cherchant à l?évidence un objet bien précis. Aidé de Massa, son fidèle serviteur japonais, Fandorine se lance dans une périlleuse enquête à travers le vieux Moscou populaire et le quartier chinois, avec ses bouges et ses fumeries d'opium. Il va bientôt découvrir que l'objet tant convoité était un chapelet de jade aux pouvoirs prétendument magiques ?
