GOLD DRAGON 5* reviews:

There's only one flaw in JJ Marsh's writing: It's so gifted that I read all of her eagerly-awaited books within a day or two of their arrival. Golden Dragon was no different. The characters, vivid locale descriptions, expertly-paced action and surprising plot twists provided a gloriously entertaining escape that--of course--were deeply satisfying, and have left me once again longing for the next episode. – Cate, US

A great story that will keep you on the edge of your seat! JJ Marsh has such a talent for bringing you right into the life she is writing about! After reading one of her books I feel as though I have visited the country and eaten the cuisine! Looking forward to the next book in this series!! Also try her Beatrice Stubbs detective series. Excellent!! – Di, US

Lots of twists and turns in this book. I really enjoyed learning more about Hong Kong and Macau. Great characters and storyline in this series.
