Red Princess Liu Hulan, Inspector in China’s Ministry of Public Security and husband David Stark, American attorney assigned to China are sent to to investigate two deaths at an archaelogical site. Smuggling artifacts, a Chinese religious cult, antipathy between China and foreigners, personal demons are elements of the story. I was attracted to the book by its promise of an view of Chinese culture and I was not disappointed. This was the second in a series featuring Liu Hulan and her husband. I plan to read the first. Well written fiction is a painless way to develop an enjoyment history and cultural differences.
