Book Review 5 out of 5 stars! First and foremost, this book is part two of "Tales of the Magistrate". It can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend reading part one first, " The Touch of Murder ". It just helps to set the stage for things and introduce the characters. Overall you will get a better reading experience to read them in order. "I hate paperwork." - Tao Jun (his number one archnemesis!)

Until a cold chill rushes down his spine as he notices some things about the crime scenes that causes deja-vu for this chaotic magistrate. Facing old demons from his past he knows for a fact were gone...

I met him in the " Tales of the Sw...
