Happy FRIDAY! I feel a tad sick from all the cake I ate yesterday. So… in order to be a responsible person I did not have cake for dessert after breakfast today. Which means I am good to have a piece after lunch. Nice!

A house with a violent past. A house the locals swear is haunted.
But there’s no such thing as ghosts. Right?
So, could there be something even more sinister out to destroy them?
And can Becca discover the truth before it’s too late?

Reds and Whites (Tom Lai Book 2)
by Matthew Legare
(247 Reviews)
FREE for a limited time
Shanghai, August 1937
Following the destruction of his nightclub, Chinese American ex-pat Tom Lai now runs an import-export company for the Green Gang – Shanghai’s ruthless crime syndicate. Tensions are again escalating between Japan and China and to make matters worse, Tom’s debts to the Gang are suddenly called in to fund the war effort.
A glimmer of hope appears when a mysterious Russian émigré, Yuri Razinkov, shows up on Tom’s doorstep. As a secret agent in the anti-Communist White Guard, Razinkov offers Tom a job in his private war against the Soviet Union. Smuggle a certain Russian out of Shanghai and Tom will earn enough money to square his debts with the Green Gang and start a new nightclub. Suspicious, but without any other options, he accepts.
The Russian in question is a Red Army officer – Colonel Andrei Borisenko – who’s desperate to escape Stalin’s brutal purge and flee to America. But other parties are interested in Borisenko too, namely Zoya Chaikina, a ruthless agent of the Soviet Security Service. There’s also Tom’s old nemesis, Jiro Fukuzaki, chief of Japanese Naval Intelligence, who now commands a small army of black-shirted Russian Fascists.
As Shanghai swelters under the summer sun, Tom finds himself trapped in a dangerous web of international espionage. Aided by his on-again/off-again girlfriend – the American Consulate officer, Liz Swanson – Tom peels back the layers of a conspiracy that’s far bigger than himself or even Shanghai.
Book 2 of the Tom Lai series, Reds and Whites is a historical thriller, recreating the bygone world of 1930s Shanghai, from its glittering nightclubs to its smoky opium dens, in vivid detail.
