About the Book

Beijing detective Li Yan, now based at the Chinese embassy in Washington, is dispatched to find out how his fellow countrymen suffocated in a sealed refrigeration unit in southern Texas - only to find himself face to face with the woman who walked out of China, and his life, to return to the U.S. Tasked to work together again to find out who is behind the100-million-dollar trade in illegal Chinese immigrants which led to the tragedy in Texas, they discover that the immigrants were unwitting carriers of a deadly cargo. Still wrestling with the demons of their past, Li and Margaret find themselves racing against time to defuse a biological time-bomb that threatens to wipe out not only their future, but that of humankind.

About the Author :
Peter May has been a journalist (Scotsman, Glasgow Evening Times), a writer on the hugely successful Scottish TV soap opera Take the High Road and the creator of three TV series: The Standard, Squadron and Machair, which is the Gaelic-language equivalent of Brookside. He spent six months in China, much of it researching his first novel, THE FIREMAKER.

Review :
A gripping thriller - The Mirror on THE FIREMAKER Stunningly original, highly topical and extremely well written - Scotland on Sunday on THE FIREMAKER Intense and fascinating - Good Book Guide on THE FIREMAKER Is the book any good?The answer is a very solid...yes...it's engaging, topical...and certainly qualifies Peter May as a name to watch. - Shots Peter May opens a window on a vision of the modern Chinese political climate ... an interesting collision of a tremendous collision of cultures. - The Herald on THE KILLING ROOM A gripping page-turner which combines edge-of-the-seat suspense with a fascinating picture of modern China making its painful transition to a market economy. - Irish Independent on THE KILLING ROOM a fascinating series, although this book, with it's detailed autopsy of the dismembered victims, is not for those with weak stomachs. - The Sunday Telegraph on THE KILLING ROOM A spell-binding and frighteningly realistic tale - Aberdeen Evening Express (Snakehead)
