A Li Du Novel
Former imperial librarian Li Du is journeying with a trade caravan bound for Lhasa that detours to a hidden valley, where he discovers a dead monk sitting on wooden bridge. His robes are rent to reveal a strange symbol on his chest. When a snowstorm forces the caravan to seek hospitality from the local lord, Li Du determines that the monk was murdered.

ELSA HART was born in Rome, Italy, but her earliest memories are of Moscow, where her family lived until 1991. Since then she has lived in the Czech Republic, the U.S.A., and China. She earned a B.A. from Swarthmore College and a J.D. from Washington University in St. Louis School of Law. She is the author of the Li Du novels, Jade Dragon Mountain and The White Mirror.
Hart seamlessly melds the complex politics of 18th-century Asia with a superior fair-play plot . . . reminiscent of a classic golden age puzzle mystery, and Hart populates it with well-rounded characters. --Publishers Weekly (starred)
