Description
NYPD Detective Jack Yu's latest case takes him from New York to Seattle, as he investigates two bodies found in Chinatown's historic Tong battleground. A young man and woman are discovered at an address on the Bloody Angle, with no clear motive for the murder-suicide. As Yu delves deeper, he uncovers a complex web of links between the murders and the criminal underworld. The Golden Galaxy club, where the young woman worked, is shrouded in scandal, with reports of drugs, snakeheads, and smuggled prostitutes. The local police are uncooperative, leaving Yu to track down a cold-blooded Chinese American gangster and a mysterious Hong Kong femme fatale. As he navigates this treacherous landscape, Yu must confront his own allegiances and the secrets that threaten to destroy him. A gripping police procedural that explores the darker side of Chinatown's historic Tong battleground, Red Jade is a tense and atmospheric thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
