Rumor had it that the Guan Yu statute that sat on the old man's desk, the symbol of his Dragon Head status as leader of the Hong Mian, was filled with priceless Pigeon Blood rubies, or at least that's what Peter Pretty Boy Chen thought. Whether he was right or wrong is a tale for another time and another place. (See Noir II, The Red Emperor)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat's significant is, his desire to get his hands on those rubies led to his brains being splattered all over the wall of the Green Dragon Restaurant. Like all classic California mysteries the past is never forgotten or forgiven; it always comes back to raise its ugly head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFast forward five years. We first met Jesse James and her associates in \u003cem\u003eThe Outlaw Rider\u003c\/em\u003e, when she was a young female jockey making a name for herself on the track and off under the guidance of her mentor, triad big shot, Johnny Luck. Jesse has moved up the Hong Mian ladder, and has made herself a major triad player, but the past is never so far behind that it doesn't affect the present. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd so Dead End begins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jerry Bader\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1988647460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781988647463\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mrpwebmedia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/18\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.37d","brand":"Jerry Bader","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486704939263,"sku":"9781988647463","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fc6a8afc-888e-47a4-8d4a-5e64751f8bb0.jpg?v=1778056400","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dead-end-jerry-bader-9781988647463","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
