Judge Dee

The panels of an elaborately inlaid screen tell a story — and Teng Kan bought it as the story relates closely to his own life. But the screen has taken on prophetic power: overnight, its strip-cartoon frames have changed from martial bliss to murder. When the charge is followed by the death of his beloved Silver Lotus, Teng seeks the help of his old friend Dee to find a solution to the mystery that threatens him with madness.
