The blurbs on the book call this a thriller. It's more than that. Shan, investigator from Beijing who's now a political prisoner in Tibet, is called upon to help solve the beheading of the Prosecutor of the district. The book is long and involved, but fascinating every step of the way. A vivid picture of Tibet and political China adds to the mix. I really liked this book and heartily reccommend it.
