From the Back Cover:
David Wang, a Chinese-American art historian, dies shortly after a visit to an ancient tomb housing priceless artifacts. Officials diagnose death by duck, a fatal confluence of culture shock and rich cuisine. But Wang's friend Tom Stratton suspects something more sinister, especially after the dead man's brother, a highly placed Party official tries to have him kidnapped. From a nightmarish interrogation to assasination by cobra, A Death in China takes readers on a trip with no rest stops through a world of claustrophobic mistrust and terrifying danger.
Synopsis:
A thriller set in China about two Americans, an expert on Qin Dynasty artefacts and his mentor, whose knowledge could cost them their lives. From the authors of POWDER BURN and TRAP LINE.
