«La piedra lunar» is the mystery novel by Jean Ray, published by Ediciones Júcar in paperback (122 pages, in Spanish).
Harry Dickson investigates a series of monstrous murders whose only clue is a moonstone or opal, a gem that certain African tribes linked to the spirits of the night. No one knows why each victim appears next to one of these stones; ancient witchcraft practices seem to lie behind the case.
Volume 24 of the Harry Dickson series. Translated by Alfonso Sastre and Eva Forest. Published by Ediciones Júcar in 1972.
For fans of classic detective adventures and mystery with a witchcraft atmosphere.
Jean Ray is the best-known pseudonym among the many used by Raymundus Joannes de Kremer, a prolific Belgian (Flemish) writer. Although he wrote journalism, stories for young readers in Dutch by the name John Flanders, and scenarios for comic strips and detective stories, he is best known for his tales of the fantastique written in French under the name Jean Ray. Among speakers of English, he is famous for his macabre novel Malpertuis (1943), which was filmed by Harry Kümel in 1971. He also used the pseudonyms John Flanders, King Ray, Alix R. Bantam and Sailor John, among others.
