Produktbeschreibung

In a gripping thriller set in rural China and Myanmar, Inspector Lu Fei must infiltrate a mysterious warlord's compound to solve the case of a missing waitress and uncover a deadly animal trafficking network.

"[A] taut thriller on a topical theme perfect for readers longing for an au courant successor to Eliot Pattison's Inspector Shan Tao Yun mysteries" --Los Angeles Times

"The details are fascinating and the story fully engaging. Klingborg does an excellent job bringing to life many of the subtle details of Chinese life and culture" --Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine

Police Inspector Lu Fei has an unfortunate talent for getting himself into hot water with powerful and well-connected people. Assigned to a backwater town in Northern China and warned to keep his head down, Lu stumbles upon the case of a missing waitress while investigating the illegal trade of exotic animals. Her last known whereabouts: a restaurant owned by a smooth-talking gangster, known for serving highly illegal delicacies.

As his investigation ruffles feathers, Lu finds himself suspended from the police force. But when a mysterious Beijing official recruits him to go undercover and track down the mastermind behind the animal trafficking network, Lu must risk his life to infiltrate the hidden compound of a ruthless female warlord in the wilds of Myanmar. There, he'll face a bloody and nearly hopeless quest for justice in Wild Prey, the captivating next installment in Brian Klingborg's atmospheric crime series.
