✦ Synopsis


Originally published as Dragon Head.

A trove of Chinese treasure throws up a dilemma for Arnold and his team.

Should they keep it? Or sell it off to the highest bidder?

Enter Steven Sullivan: a suave young magnate with ties to the Far East.

His boss has more than a casual interest in the ancient Chinese artifacts. And he’s keen to take Arnold and his prickly coworkers out to dinner to seal the deal.

But Arnold has barely picked up his chopsticks when . . .

A gunshot explodes from the kitchen, killing the only other diner in the near-empty restaurant.

Steven leaps up in hot pursuit, to be grazed by a second bullet in a shady alley.

The killer escapes into the night, leaving Steven to walk away with his life.

A stroke of luck? Or a smokescreen for something more sinister?

Arnold won’t rest until he uncovers the truth.

But what if the next bullet is meant for him?
