A missing shipment of weapons for China and the murder of an aspiring scientist kickstart a madcap dash through the world of seances, prizefighting, cutting-edge technology, Holmesian cameos, and many disguises.

London, 1924. Judge Cheng Gao Shang has been sent by Sun Yat Sen's government to look into the death of Dee Ren Jie, the larger-than-life investigator who had kept the local Chinese community safe. But Dee isn't dead; he's hiding out with his friends Lao She and Sergeant Hoong while keeping a close eye on Cheng's activities. Has Cheng actually come to London to track down a disappeared shipment of arms covertly sent from England, intended for Sun Yat Sen as he attempts to forcibly unify China?

Judge Cheng's daughter, Irene, is also in London, and the intrepid, intellectually curious young woman quickly falls in with Dee and Lao's associates. But tragedy soon strikes--or is it something more sinister? To find out, Dee Ren Jie will have to rise from the dead in this action-packed kung-fu caper, the third installment of the Anthony Award-winning Dee and Lao Mystery Series.
