A cargo ship has run aground on Alcatraz Island. Normally, this would not be anything out of the ordinary. This time it was very different!
The cargo ship was full of Chinese refugees who were being smuggled and the crew had been murdered. It looked like a professional assassin did the job. In fact one man had an eight-inch blade embedded in his chest. Who could have done this and why?
Cape Weathers is a P.I. and he decides to find out what really happened. The one thing that keeps running through Cape’s mind is that his partner, Sally, could have possibly done this job. There is a dark secret in her past. The only problem here is that she has gone missing. When Cape starts to ask questions about her past, he soon finds a dead body in his trunk.
Will Cape be successful at finding out what really happened and if his partner, Sally, was involved in the murders?
This book is loaded with colorful characters and moves at a fast pace that will take you back and forth from Sally’s life to the current investigation. The author does an excellent job of setting the atmosphere with the descriptions of places the investigation takes the reader – from Chinatown and the people in control there to the secret societies of Hong Kong. Stealing the Dragon will keep you turning the pages. The reader will definitely want to read the next book in this series. This one is highly recommended.
