Welcome back to Ho-Lee Noodle House, where you can get fantastic take-out unless you get taken out first.Dim Sum of All Fears is the second book in a delicious new cozy series.Lana Lee is a dutiful daughter, waiting tables at her family's Chinese restaurant even though she'd rather be doing just about anything else. Then, just when she has a chance for a "real" job, her parents take off to Taiwan, leaving Lana in charge. Surprising everyone-including herself-she turns out to be quite capable of running the place. Unfortunately, the newlyweds who just opened the souvenir store next door to Ho-Lee have turned up dead and soon Lana finds herself in the midst of an Asia Village mystery.Between running the Ho-Lee and trying to figure out whether the rock-solid Detective Adam Trudeau is actually her boyfriend, Lana knows she shouldn't pry into the case. But the more she learns about the dead husband, his ex-wives, and all the murky details of the couple's past, the more Lana thinks that this so-called murder/suicide is a straight-up order of murder.

Records of the Historian
Language: English
Published by Commercial Press Limited, 1975
First Edition
Hard cover. First edition. 460 p. The Records of the Historian, written two thousand years age by Szuma Chien of the Han Dynasty, is the greatest historical work China has produced. Many parts of it are fine literature. Thanks to Szuma Chien's rich experience of life, his enlightened approach to history and his brilliance as a man of letters, he was able to make a discriminating selection of material and to write a new form of history. His monumental work provides a realistic picture of many different historical figures and aspects of Han society, in addition to much information about earlier times. The excellent organization of this work, and its method of presenting history from various angles, made it a model for later historians from the Han to the Ching Dynasties. In fact, this became the accepted way of recording official history. The rich contents of the Records, its remarkable character sketches and its vast panoramic view of complex social life induced later prose writers to imitate its style. In this way it has had a profound influence on Chinese literature. Fine in very good dust jacket. light shelfwear to the jacket, first printing, 1975, in English.
