Cathay, 1268. Nick Zuliani, a Venetian adventurer serving as Kublai Khan’s Investigator of Crimes, is sent from the imperial court to a remote town where Jianxu, a young woman, has confessed to poisoning Geng Biao and faces execution.
The confession was obtained under torture, but overturning it would challenge the local governor and create a political crisis. Nick follows the victim’s finances and family arrangements while trying to expose the real killer without becoming the expendable agent in a rival’s trap.
