A Hundred Thousand Dragons

A Hundred Thousand Dragons
by Dolores Gordon-Smith

The latest ‘Jack Haldean’ mystery, set in the Roaring Twenties

A hundred thousand dragons lie, underneath an Arabian sky.

How do a few lines of poetry, a chance encounter in a London hotel, and a death in Sussex lead to a lost city of Arabia, and to the tombs of the Whispering Dead? Jack Haldean has evaded the truth for years, but now, enmeshed in the web of murder, theft and deception, he must find the answer and face up to the truth – a truth as deadly as any dragon . . .

Genre: Historical Crime & Mystery
