Back Bay Investigation: Four Mysteries in One

G.X. Chen
4.9/5 (25133 ratings)
Description:Librarian Note: Alternate Cover Edition for ASIN: B019PEZOXY.The Mystery of Moutai (Book 1) - A teenager returns home from school to find a gruesome scene: the apartment he shares with his mother in Boston’s Chinatown has been ransacked and she is dead. There is a bottle of Moutai—the most exotic and expensive Chinese liquor—left at the scene and traces of rat poison in one of the two shot glasses on the kitchen counter. This was evidently a homicide, but who could possibly be the killer? Ann Lee and Fang Chen, close friends of the victim, team up with the Boston police to solve this mystifying crime: why would anyone want to murder a harmless middle-aged woman, one who worked as an unassuming mail room clerk, with no money, no connections, and presumably, no enemies? Realizing that important clues behind the motive may be buried deep in the victim’s past, they travel to Beijing, where the victim spent more than fifty years of her life.Surrounded by the antiquities of China’s rich and complex history, they stumble unwittingly into a cobweb of mystery and danger. Fearing for their lives but determined to press on, they end up unearthing a scandal more deceptive and far-reaching than either could have imagined.The Fatal Sin of Love (Book 2) - In Beacon Hill, one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Boston, a wealthy widow dies in her sleep, while in Cambridge, where academia meets high tech, a dog is slaughtered. One death has seemingly no bearing on the other until the death in a remote Chinese village is announced. Answering the call from a friend, amateur detectives Ann Lee and Fang Chen rush to the ancient village, where the branches of a family tree stretch from China to New Zealand, Australia, and the US, and where—to Ann’s great chagrin—Fang Chen becomes obsessed with a girl being pursued by a ruthless killer who will stop at nothing to sacrifice her in the name of love.Will Fang Chen’s untimely passion get in the way of his investigation and destroy his partnership with Ann? Can the amateur sleuths outsmart the cunning and crafty killer?Death Comes to Lake Como (Book 3) – It opens with Fang Chen and his new bride corresponding with their friend, Ann Lee, while on vacation in Italy. Things quickly turn sinister when a nurse for a wealthy American tourist and a retired cook are murdered.Ripples of strife left over from the Cultural Revolution in China pull Ann and Fang Chen into a complicated murder case. The answers are not easily found by the amateur detectives and take them through a maze of leads across the byzantine network of Chinatown's residents.Connections one wouldn't expect are brought to light as the investigation deepens, and more innocent people are dragged into a plot motivated by a sinister agenda. Ann and Fang Chen must solve the mystery before it hits closer to home than they could've imagined.Rich with surprise at every twist and turn, Death Comes to Lake Como is an intriguing murder mystery that blends love and friendship with greed and deceit, all in the lush setting of Italy's Lake Country.An Intangible Affair (Book 4) - The first time Jamie meets Jim, she is a graduate student, and he is a dashing young man embarking on a successful career in pharmaceutical research. They cultivate a mutual affection for each other while pursuing different goals in life.When Jamie meets Jim again years later, she has broken up with her long-time boyfriend, and he is having marital problems. A one-night stand in a remote hotel turns their friendship into a two-decade long love affair. When their liaison becomes too difficult to sustain, it brings a crisis to its head. The accidental death of Jim’s wife clears the way for the lovers, but instead of uniting with Jamie, Jim commits suicide.Suspenseful and gripping, An Intangible Affair is a tale of passion and deception, friendship and love.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
