Book 32: Flower Net
Tomorrow I will be starting book number 32, 'Flower Net' by Lisa See. This is the first book in the Red Princess Mystery series about police detective Liu Hulan. In 'Flower Net', a US ambassador's son is found dead in Beijing and the corpse of the Red Prince is found off the coast of California. The Chinese and American governments team up to to see if there is a connection between these deaths and the lead investigators end up having an intense attraction to each other. In my mind I'm thinking of the description as 'Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' meets Asian mystery/fiction. I hope it's good.

Sounds like it should be good. I feel like lately whenever I think "Oh this is going to be good," I'm disappointed.
ReplyDeleteI have been busy lately and haven't had a lot of time to read, but I finally finished 'Flower Net'. I really enjoyed this book. It started off kind of slow, but once David and Hulan were brought together to work on the case the story really had me interested. I saw lots of comparisons between this book and 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'. This was a great mystery with lots of twists. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
