James Asher finds himself once more in alliance with vampire Don
Simon Ysidro, as their investigations takes them to far-off Peking
. . It's October of 1912. The world is on the brink of war. James
Asher, his wife Lydia, and the old occultist and vampire-hunter Dr
Solomon Karlebach have journeyed to the new-born Republic of China
to investigate the rumour that the mindless Undead - the Others
that even the vampires fear - have begun to multiply in the caverns
of the hills west of Peking. Asher finds himself with his old
vampire partner, Don Simon Ysidro, in this sinister hunt, and is
forced into a delicate balance of alliances and enmities: between
Ysidro and the implacable vampire-killer Karlebach; between dangers
from his past as a spy and entanglement in an inexplicable
murder-case; and between Chinese criminal gangs and the walking
dead whose blood infects the living on contact. And somewhere in
the city's cold gray labyrinth lurk the Peking vampires, whom some
say have become gods and whom others call the Magistrates of Hell:
ancient, alien to Western thought, and with an agenda of their own
. . .
