It's a miracle that I survived as long as I did." *** For years, Chen Cao managed to balance the interests of the Communist Party and the promises made by his job. He was both a Chief Inspector of Special Investigations of the Shanghai Police Department and the deputy party secretary of the bureau. He was considered a potential rising star in the Party until, after one too many controversial cases that embarrassed powerful elements in the Party, Chen Cao found himself neutralized. Under the guise of a brilliant promotion, to a new position with no power, he's stripped of his titles and his job duties, discredited and isolated. But that's still not enough, as it becomes increasingly clear that someone is attempting to have him killed--and quietly. Chen Cao is technically in charge of the corruption case of a "Red Prince"--a powerful, high Party figure who embodies the ruthless ambition, greed, and corruption that is increasingly evident in the new China. With no power, few allies, and with his own reputation and life on the line, the former Inspector Chen is facing the most dangerous case of his career"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Chen, Inspector (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Police $z Shanghai $z Shanghai $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Corruption investigation $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Shanghai (China) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Mystery fiction. $2 gsafd 650 7 $a FICTION / Mystery & Detective / Police Procedural. $2 bisacsh 650 0 $a Adult : Fiction on order 800 1 $a Qiu, Xiaolong, $d 1953- $t Inspector Chen novel. 856 42 $3 Cover image $u http://www.netread.com/jcusers2/bk1388/278/9781250065278/image/lgcover.9781250065278.jpg 941 $a 7 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417013330.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204081427.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110063344.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006091008.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160202092420.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20160105012033.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20151223020416.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BCED1F0C1BC811E5957CD299DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
