About this listen
The Klondike Detective 2 continues the story of John Caldwell. He decided to take leave from the Northwest Mounted Police in Dawson City in 1902 to visit his family. Nearby, in Kingston Penitentiary, Cedric Barton and Robert McGill escape. These were men that John helped to convict, so he follows them to San Francisco.
There, he becomes a Pinkerton's agent and then a double agent employed by Lila McGill, who is Robert McGill's mother, since the McGill gang is now at war with the Barton Tong. Another fellow working for Lila McGill is a treasury agent following Barton and his import of weapons, ladies, and cocaine.
They follow the trail to Shanghai where John is recruited by the municipal police and then finds a double who looks like someone who works for Barton Tong. Naturally, John impersonates the fellow after hiding him. The adventure and mystery continue in this second book.

He climbs out the window in his slippers and embarks on a hilarious and entirely unexpected journey, involving, among other surprises, a suitcase stuffed with cash.

The men and women from very different backgrounds - a Texan athlete with German roots, an upper-crust son of a French mother and a wealthy businessman, a dirt-poor Midwestern fly fisherman, an orphaned fashion designer, and a ravishingly beautiful female fencer - all answer the call of duty, but each for a secret reason of his or her own. They bond immediately, in a group code-named Dragonfly.

Who hasn’t wondered for a split second what the world would be like if a person who is the object of your affliction ceased to exist? But then you’ve probably never heard of The McMasters Conservatory, dedicated to the consummate execution of the homicidal arts.

The campus of this “Poison Ivy League” college—its location unknown to even those who study there—is where you might find yourself the practice target of a classmate.

From the best-selling author of the Sandman Slim series, a lush, dark, stand-alone fantasy built off the insurgent tradition of China Mieville and M. John Harrison - a subversive tale that immerses us in a world where the extremes of bleakness and beauty exist together in dangerous harmony in a city on the edge of civility and chaos. The Great War is over. The city of Lower Proszawa celebrates the peace with a decadence and carefree spirit as intense as the war’s horrifying despair.
