The murder of an art expert and the disappearance of the priceless Bronze Dragon artifact propel Detective Henry Lau into the nebulous world of ancient antiquities. Complicating matters is a parade of dodgy suspects who wouldn't know a truthful statement if it bit them on the leg. Unlocking the mystery may hinge on deciphering a cryptic message left by the dead man. Back on active duty after debilitating injuries sidelined him for months, Henry is determined to prove to himself and his boss that he can still do the job. His investigative ability and Wing Chun kung fu skills are pushed to the limit as the case spirals to a dangerous showdown. -- Adapted from back cover.
