With all the publicity I’ve been doing, I’ve only had time to read one book. The Ninja’s Oath by Tori Eldridge.

Lily Wong is a martial arts master. In this fourth one of the series, she travels to help Uncle, the cook in her father’s restaurant. Uncle was a gang member and is a pretty lethal fighter now. His granddaughter has been abducted and he needs Lily’s help in rescuing her.

I loved the descriptions of the setting – Shanghai. An old city of circuitous alleys and crumbling houses within a thoroughly modern city of high rises and affluence.

J Tran, the child soldier who intermittently assists Lily, makes an appearance just when he is needed most.

So fun. Plenty of action, an exotic setting and hitting of romance with the mystery. What could be better?
