About this listen

The fourth China Thriller, from the million-selling Peter May - author of the Richard and Judy best seller The Blackhouse.

Suffocated

A vehicle crammed with dozens of dead Chinese immigrants is found in Southern Texas. Pathologist Margaret Campbell must put aside her horror and find out why.

Summoned

Detective Li Yan - an even more unwelcome memory for Campbell - has arrived stateside to investigate a link in the case to a lucrative trade in illegal labourers.

Snakehead

Yan and Campbell will soon find that the crime scene hides another secret: a biological time bomb linking traffickers, politicians and migrants in Beijing, Washington and Texas - posing multiple countries one very singular threat.

Many twists to the central theme, pretty unbelievable but fine if you remind yourself that it’s just a story

Didn’t enjoy this one… the virus aspect was too similar to Covid so didn’t enjoy reading about it! Will look forward to the next one!

After Covid this was too close to home
