The Master of Rain [ang.]

Autor: Bradby, Tom

Shanghai, 1926. Exotic, sexually liberated and pulsing with life, it is a place and time where anything seems possible. For policeman Richard Field, it represents a brave new world away from the past he is trying to escape. His first moment of active duty is the brutal and sadistic murder of a young White Russian woman, Lena Orlov. The key to the investigation seems to be Lena`s neighbour, Natasha Medvedev. But can Field trust someone for whom self-preservation is the only goal?

With the International police force riven with rivalries, it is soon clear that Field must make his own way through the investigation. And in a city where reality is a dangerous luxury, Field is driven into the darkness beyond the dazzle of society to a world where the basest of human needs are met and where the truth seems certain to be a fatal commodity.
