Opis

The first two books in the series The Inspector Kwong Mysteries. The Quartz is the first in a new series called The Inspector Kwong Mysteries, based on characters from Warren's novel, Hong Kong Blues. The Quartz is not a whodunnit. It tracks the action in Hong Kong and Beijing of both Chief Inspector Lawrence Kwong and the villain, Vice Premier Xiao Mingyu, the fourth most powerful man in the People's Republic of China. Twists and turns along the way bring them face to face with each other. The McGuffin of the piece, the Qin Quartz, is a treasure from the tomb of Emperor Qin, the first Emperor of China. The second of The Inspector Kwong Mysteries, The River, builds a double tale of a brutal kidnapping and a drawing room mystery straight out of the game of Clue. It's peppered with romance, humor, a viral manhunt and a couple of straight shots of Scotch. Huang Long Wei was dead. But before he dies, the dragon head of Pearl River Triad gives his chiefs a last wish. He wants Inspector Lawrence Kwong kidnapped and humiliated. The River blends this frightening premise with an old-fashioned murder that turns into another type of fright. And along the way, Matson Tai meets the love of his life.
