This stunning, swashbuckling series opener by a powerhouse duo of authors is both comfortingly familiar and tantalizingly new for fans of Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes films. In the cobbled streets of 1920s London, two unlikely allies race against time to catch a killer targeting Chinese immigrants.
In London, 1924, shy academic Lao She's life is turned upside down when he meets the larger-than-life Judge Dee Ren Jie. Dee is in London to investigate the murder of a man he knew from his time serving in the Chinese Labour Corps during World War I. As they delve deeper into the case, more bodies turn up, all stabbed to death with a butterfly sword. Can Dee and Lao unravel the mystery before they become the next victims?
Combining traditional gong’an crime fiction with elements of the Sherlock Holmes canon, Dee and Lao's first adventure is as thrilling as an action film and as transportive as a timeless classic. Readers will be captivated by the fast-paced narrative and vivid imagery throughout this gripping tale.
