Peking in 1937 is a heady mix of privilege and scandal, opulence and opium dens, rumors and superstition. The Japanese are encircling the city, and the discovery of Pamela Werner's body sends a shiver through already nervous Peking. Is it the work of a madman? One of the ruthless Japanese soldiers now surrounding the city? With the suspect list growing and clues sparse, two detectives - one British and one Chinese - race against the clock to solve the crime before the Japanese invade and Peking as they know it is gone forever.

The second half just did not do it for me
Revisado: 08-06-12
Is there anything you would change about this book?
The second half was written in a very different style from the beginning, as if read out of a police report, very little action. I totally lost interest in the intriguing story.
What does Erik Singer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Excellent performance. Couldn't have read it better.
