Produktbeschreibung

"The courtship between the high-class courtesan and the street cop is well drawn and nuanced" in this historical murder mystery (Publishers Weekly). Beauty and treachery abound in the infamous Pingkang Li, home of the celebrated Lotus Palace courtesans . . . As the most requested hostess at the Lotus Palace, Mingyu can charm any man who seeks her company-except Wu Kaifeng. Wu Kaifeng is a no-nonsense constable who maintains his level head even in the most desperate situations. Having crossed paths with each other in the past, the two have a strained history, but that doesn't stop Mingyu from falling for the secretly sensitive officer. When a powerful official is found dead in a highly suspicious murder, Mingyu and Kaifeng become involved in the dangerous mystery. Amid the chaos, Kaifeng discovers his reluctant, yet fierce attraction to Mingyu, but the temptation to give in to her could destroy them both. After all, a forbidden affair is bound to have consequences . . .
