Judge Dee and Lao She must once again use all their powers of deduction, and kung fu skills, to take down a sinister conspiracy between Imperial Russia, Japan, and China in 1920s London.
The follow-up to “The Murder of Mr. Ma”, this historical adventure-mystery is perfect for fans of Laurie R. King and the Guy Ritchie “Sherlock Holmes” films.
Following a series of events including the retrieval of a stolen Chinese artifact, the murders of a British banking official and a Chinese communist, and a planted bomb at an autumn festival, Dee and Lao uncover a sinister railroad conspiracy between Russia, China, and Japan.
