‘An intricate mystery' Sunday Telegraph ‘Original, fast paced and clever... an outstandingly interesting description of life in Beijing from two utterly different angles'
-
In a country thick with paranoia and corruption, it's hard to
separate rumour from reality. So when a British man's headless
body is discovered in an icy, fetid lake in Beijing, it is
unclear whether his death is linked to a series of brutal attacks
on local women.
From the smog of the capital to the poverty-stricken
countryside,and from the mansions of millionaires to a disused
quarry where the children of scavengers root among the rubbish,
journalist Robin Ballantyne and Chinese private investigator Song
race to unravel the truth before they find themselves silenced -
and before the killer can make another sinister move...
Shattering traditional preconceptions, The Pool of Unease is
a gritty, fast-paced thriller that exposes the shadowy underbelly
of modern China.
