''The Curse of the Thirty Denarii'' is the nineteenth Blake and Mortimer book in the series. The story was written by Jean Van Hamme. Its completion was delayed with the death of the artist, René Sterne, on November 15, 2006. The book was completed by Sterne's girlfriend Chantal de Spiegeleer and was released on the 20 November 2009. It is a two-part installment containing "The Nicodemus script" (''Le manuscrit de Nicodemus'') as part 1 and "Orpheus' gate" (''La porte d'Orphée'') as part 2. It tells of the search for the 30 pieces of silver paid to Judas Iscariot for his betrayal of Jesus. ==Plot== Volume I: In Pennsylvania, Olrik escapes a federal prison by helicopter after a bloody attack. With Blake forced to cut short his holidays at the news, a disappointed Mortimer turns his attention to Greece, where an earthquake has uncovered an ancient chapel. Before long, people are trying to kill Mortimer over a mysterious Roman silver coin. Could the long-lost relic be one of the 30 denarii paid to Judas for his betrayal of Jesus? And who exactly covets it so much? Volume II: Captured and then abandoned by Olrik, Mortimer is now lost at sea with no provisions. Fortunately, he can always count on Blake. Once reunited, and with the help of some old friends, the two British gentlemen continue their dangerous mission to stop Von Stahl from resurrecting the Third Reich using the evil power of the 30 pieces of silver… a mission that will take them throughout Greece and into the very Kingdom of Hades! 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Curse of the Thirty Denarii」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
