All aboard the Immortal Express - Lady Jing is off to Paris where she will encounter romance, danger and vampires in the sequel to the Sunday Times bestselling Shanghai Immortal.
Now a Minister of Hell, Lady Jing is mind-numbingly bored. All she wants is plain talk and time with her beau Tony Lee, who has been distracted with mortal matters of late (impending war is such a drag).
But then a visiting Celtic deity, turns up boneless and drained of yin qi. The only way to help him is to return him to his pantheon's healer, in residence in Paris. Ready for a new adventure, Jing immediately volunteers for the task.
Accompanied by Tony Lee, the group settle into the Immortal Express for what should be a run-of-the mill journey until the train is hijacked by the Vampire Republic, who are seeking hostages in their bid to demand recognition by the international pantheons.
Jing fears the worst, but when she unwittingly reveals her heritage, the vampires embrace her as one of their own... if she abandons her friends. Caught in an impossible situation, can Jing use her wit and spark to save them all?
