Catherine Sohon has left Africa and is in Bejing. She is working with the Wildlife Investigation Agency. They are looking into the illegal activity of elephant poaching. She goes undercover through the market stalls and nightclubs looking for Nigel and the others behind the poaching. She uncovers something she did not expect a group of nightingale enthusiasts. When she spots Nigel haggling over a nightingale in a threatening manner, she is intrigued. What does the nightingale have to do with ivory trading?

The book has a fast pace, the characters are somewhat developed, and it is written in the first-person point of view. Catherine is a strong woman but sometimes I wonder what she is thinking of going into some of these situations. She is unarmed and at time unaware of the people and the circumstances. This is the follow up book to Ivory Ghosts. If you like mysteries with descriptive scenery, you will enjoy reading this book.
