Description: When a headless corpse is found by a prison gang on a windy Tibetan mountainside, veteran inspector Shan Tao Yun might seem the perfect man to solve the crime -- except that he is in a Tibetan prison himself for offending the Party in Beijing. Desperate to close the case before an American tourist delegation arrives, state officials give the embittered Shan an ultimatum: solve the crime fast and in a politically expedient fashion or the Tibetan priests in Shan's work brigade will be punished.

When early evidence shows that the killer was a mythical Buddhist demon, Shan is thrown into a maelstrom of political and religious intrigue involving American mining interests, Tibetan sorcerers, corrupt party officials and the Buddhist resistance movement.

Set against the astonishing landscape of this beleagured Himalayan country and the epic struggle of the Tibetan people, Shan's difficult and twisted journey to the truth becomes a passage through the many layers of tragedy inflicted by China on Tibet and its people.
