" This was just OK (and some of it was annoying)....but now of course I want to know what happens to the character so I will probably read the next one. Thanks goodness there are only 4 (or maybe 5) in the series.) "

" Found the resolution a bit far-fetched, and the backdrop of international relations a bit much, too. I prefer a smaller scale kind of story. Still, the Chinese setting was a nice change from my usual urban noir reads, and it kept me reading if not completely engaged. "

" This adventure takes Neal Carey to Hong Kong and China in pursuit of a beautiful woman and a missing artist. Winslow's work is rich in detail but sometimes falters in plot cohesion. Nevertheless, it is pure delight to revisit these novels. "

" less light than the other Neal Carey books, a splendid travelogue deftly conjuring up San Francisco and Hong Kong as Neal Carey follows the neat swirling plot.
very good
