Clive Allan, a suave private eye, ventures throughout China in search of an ancient jadeite tablet from the Ming dynasty. Along the way, he delves into the mysteries of China's art, history, and culture.
Every bit as captivating as the treasure Clive seeks is the mysterious Wei Wei, an expert on Chinese artifacts who helps the droll detective navigate the most perilous pockets of Beijing, Shanghai, Xi'an, Hangzhou, Suzhou, and beyond.
With sidekicks Salvador and Mackenzie, Clive sets out to find the priceless artifact, outwitting their rivals at almost every turn. But between the fistfights and rickshaw chases, gunfights and betrayals, Clive's deep connection with the treasure he seeks and his romance with Wei Wei force him to confront truths about his past and himself.
Early readers describe The Color of Jadeite as "a tight, taut, terrific thriller" (Steve Berry) and "as tense, romantic, and obsessed as the great noir thrillers" (Jacquelyn Mitchard). Others have described it as "The Maltese Falcon on high octane" (Jerry Holt), "Clever, witty, captivating," (Toby Devens), and "a page-turner that will keep you holding your breath" (Lucrecia Guerrero).
