August 1937, the Japanese have invaded northern Shanghai, and a fierce battle rages across the city, but the International Settlement is an island of safety. When an American seaman is found shot on the edge of the urban battleground, mere feet from the boundary, Doug Bainbridge is assigned to investigate for the navy.

His was no accidental death. Can Doug solve Nick's murder before the murderer comes for him?

A night out in Shanghai can turn deadly, especially if you're Japanese... Shanghai, 1936. A series of assassinations of Japanese businessmen, sailors, and officials has struck fear into the International Settlement, and the Chinese government is blaming communist insurgents. Doug Bainbridge is soon pulled into the political intrigue. When a friend of Doug's is arrested for the assassination of a Japanese secret agent, Doug is certain she didn't do it. Since Chinese officials don't seem to care about Wong Mei-ling's actual guilt or innocence, Doug and his girlfriend Lucy Kinzler take it upon themselves to find proof of the real killers, and save Mei-ling from execution for a murder she didn't commit. Book Two in the Death in Shanghai series, Assassin's Hood is a traditional historical mystery, with cross-over appeal to fans of spy fiction, and gay and lesbian fiction.
