3.0

A murder mystery overlaid with Chinese history and culture. The detectives are a US District Attorney and a Chinese official with a past romantic relationship, and the action takes place across LA and Shanghai.

Some of the murders are gruesome, but much of the book is a page-turner. Everything is tied up nicely at the end, like most mysteries, but the ending, also like most mysteries, seems pretty pat, if not quite forced.

Interesting characters. Enjoyed the Chinese culture and history lessons.
