In the third of the critically acclaimed China thrillers, Li Yan and Margaret Campbell travel to Shanghai: where a new ally, and a new enemy, await.
THE NEW CASE
When a mass grave containing eighteen mutilated female corpses is discovered in Shanghai, detective Li Yan is sent from Beijing to establish if the bodies are linked to an unsolved murder in the capital. Here, Li will be working with Mei Ling, deputy head of Shanghai's serious crime squad.
THE NEW COLLEAGUE
Mei Ling is a formidable woman: a fact that is not lost on Li's on-off lover, forensic pathologist Margaret Campbell. But when Campbell, vulnerable and still grieving the loss of her father, learns that the victims were subjected to 'live' autopsies, she knows the case is bigger than her pride.
THE KILLING ROOM
Li, Campbell and Mei Ling are now entering the arena of a sickening nemesis, and opening a door behind which lies each of their very worst nightmares.

Unputdownable, disturbing, sadly believable, held me in its grip to the last line. PM weaves a picture of places you have been to so accurately, that you know the rest must be real and against this backcloth he spins an interlocked story that sadly we all know could very well have happened. In a library of his superb books, this is among the very best. If you have any intention of being a writer, this is a wordsmith to pay heed to.
