I enjoyed this book because that particular time period in China is rarely written about.  It was a thoroughly crazy time and place.  Most of us don't realize how international it was then.  I think this novel brought that out very well.I wouldn't call it a mystery.  There was no mystery that pretty much everybody was a bad guy.  Perhaps a thriller because there was lots of doubt as to whether our hero would survive the dangerous situations and plotting of his enemies.There could be some improvement by editing and proofreading, but I was able to overlook that.It would be interesting to have a sequel following the hero to his next adventure.
