Reviews

"After an ending as satisfyingly twisty as a cursive ideogram, we are ditched on the mean streets of Chengdu, ready for the sequel." —NPR.org on Death Notice

"This procedural, the first novel in China's most popular suspense trilogy, boasts the rich cultural immersion, the bird's-eye view of procedural technique in an international police force, and the complex mysteries that have long driven the popularity of Scandinavian crime fiction." —Booklist starred review of Death Notice

"Death Notice is a gritty, hard-hitting page turner set on the mean streets of a China you've never seen before.  A first rate tale of criminal intrigue right up there with the best of Michael Connelly and Jo Nesbo . . . but with a tang all its own. Highly recommended!" —Christopher Reich, New York Times bestselling author of Rules of Deception
