A novella for fans of Mo Xiang Tong Xiu’s «Blessing of the Immortals» and «The Founder of the Dark Path».
A detective story where martial arts collide with intrigue and investigations in the capital of Ancient China.
Designed by the artist DorothyWei.
After one of the Midnighters’ killers is exposed, a chilling song about the Golden Lady spreads through the streets of the capital—then stray animals vanish without a trace. Rumors claim that these ghosts foretell an imminent calamity for the Great Xia state.
The owner of «White Crane» Yao Lin receives unsettling warnings: someone leaves slain animals on the doorstep of his inn and attempts an assassination, barely missing him with a golden arrow… As if a mysterious enemy is hunting him.
Yun Shengli, the Chief of the Bureau of Punishments, is determined at any cost to protect their new ally, but is forced to investigate the disappearance of the minister of ceremonies’ beloved dog, suspecting that both cases are linked to ominous portents in the capital. However, the criminals’ trail leads out of the city—to Daling, known for its mines, where there is so much gold that it seems to flow in the veins of its people…
“While mysterious killings take place in Great Xia, distrust, hidden motives, and dangerous friendship blur the line between ally and enemy. Perhaps that is the intention: keep your friends close, and your enemies even closer.” – Shuang Meihua, author of «White Lycoris in the Valley of Immortals»
