Snakehead

A vehicle crammed with dozens of dead Chinese immigrants is found in Texas. Pathologist Margaret Campbell must put aside her horror, and find out why. Detective Li Yan has arrived stateside to investigate a link in the case to a lucrative trade in illegal labourers. Li and Campbell will soon find that the crime scene hides another secret: a biological time bomb linking traffickers, politicians and migrants in Beijing, Washington and Texas. Intense and fascinating.
