Le gang du Nouveau Quai

Cette série plonge les lecteurs dans les rues sales et vibrantes du quartier de Lambeth, dans le Londres victorien, à travers les yeux d'une bande d'enfants des rues débrouillards. Confrontés à un monde de pickpockets, de parieurs et d'interventions policières occasionnelles, ces jeunes naviguent des défis complexes avec cran et détermination. C'est une représentation captivante de la résilience enfantine, de la loyauté et de l'esprit indomptable de survie face à l'adversité.

Ordre de lecture recommandé

  1. Londra, 1894: i ragazzi della banda di New Cut hanno un nuovo caso da risolvere... Benny Kaminsky , 11 anni, il geniale capo della, banda, appassionato, generoso e sempre in azione; Samuel Dobney detto Sventola , timido e riflessivo, ma energico e forte se ferito negli affetti; Bridie Malone , dai capelli rossi e dal temperamento focoso, sempre accompagnata dal fratellino Bob lo Squalo , capace di mangiare di tutto; Le gemelle Peretti , sveglissime e feroci, a dispetto dei loro visini angelici. Riuscirà il giovane e timido Dick Smith a dichiararsi alla dolce e bella Daisy? Mentre nel quartiere dilaga la mania delle scommesse, qualcuno ruba il tesoro d'argento della Venerabile Società dei Gasisti. Unico indizio un fiammifero svedese. Una perla di suspense, ironia e colpi di scena, un piccolo giallo di Philip Pullman.

  • Benny, Thunderbolt, Bridie, Sharky and the Peretti twins are a mixed bunch of vagabonds and urchins who come together to form the New Cut Gang in two comic tales of stolen silver and skulduggery. Fake coins are turning up all over Lambeth and the finger of suspicion is pointing at Thunderbolt's dad - could he really be the forger? The crime-busting New Cut Gang come to the rescue! And when just two clues - a blob of wax and a Swedish match - are discovered at the scene of a break-in, the children find themselves on the trail of an extremely cunning criminal. Set in late Victorian London, these gripping thrillers have now been put together in a single volume - with new illustrations throughout from Horrible Histories illustrator, Martin Brown.
