Beschreibung
The second paperback volume of the series of Chinese thrillers. The second case of detective Li Jen and American forensic pathologist Margaret Campbell. Margaret finds herself once again in a situation where she must employ her unique skills, this time during the investigation of a series of ritual executions in Beijing. The first three victims were drugged, bound, marked with a poster bearing a nickname and number, and then skillfully beheaded. The fourth victim was executed in the same manner, but this time it was an American diplomat of Chinese descent. It remains a mystery to everyone why Yüan Tchao returned to Beijing after several decades in America, settled for a low-paying bureaucratic position, and rented an apartment in a shabby part of the city — above all, why he died in the same bizarre manner as the other three Chinese. Li and Margaret are on the trail of the truth, but in doing so, they dangerously approach the murderer, who is ready to sacrifice anyone to keep his secret safe.
