A Matter of Confidence

Nightmare in Chinatown - It was a busy night for murder. First they found the corpse of the pretty stewardess, strangled by a silk scarf. Then they found the Chinatown mobster - with a copy of Harper's Bazaar and a bullet in his head. And then came the news that an ancient jade chess set ahd been stolen from the People's Museum in Peking. Unrelated events? Suave criminal lawyer Sam Benedict began to wonder, as his phone started ringing with desperate clients. It was a case as tricky as a Chinese box, and it led him to a deadly confrontation with the dread Wah Ching gang, a fight with the DA, a startling courtroom showdown, and a gangland murder twenty-five years in the past. - From the rear cover.
