Praise for Enigma of China: Superb...This installment approaches
the levels of Eliot Pattison and James Church's similarly themed
novels, and the series has gotten stronger with age. --Publishers
Weekly (starred review) In addition to being a wonderful character
study and surprise-packed mystery, Qiu's latest is a many-faceted
study of contemporary China.. --Booklist
Praise for Don't Cry, Tai Lake: "When Chief Inspector Chen Cao of
the Shanghai Police Department lucks into an all-expenses-paid
getaway package, we veteran mystery readers anticipate that more
snooping than snoozing will soon be on Chen's vacation itinerary.
We are not disappointed." --NPR on Don't Cry, Tai Lake "Chen's
seventh (The Mao Case, 2009, etc.) is again peppered with poetry
and told with clarity and elegance. Its portrait of modern China is
as intriguing as its slow-rolling whodunit." --Kirkus Reviews on
Don't Cry, Tai Lake "Thought-provoking, poetic and suspenseful."
--The Wall Street Journal on Don't Cry, Tai Lake
