The very first mystery in the beloved series starring Judge Dee, a detective whom the Los Angeles Times ranked with Sherlock Holmes!

Join the T'ang Dynasty detective Judge Dee on his very first full-length mystery! Poisoned plums, a cryptic scroll picture, passionate love letters, and a hidden murderer with a penchant for torturing and killing women lead Judge Dee to the heart of the Governor’s garden maze and the answers to three interwoven mysteries. This book kicked off Robert van Gulik's long-running series and introduced countless listeners to a cozy, clever series and the incredible detective at its center. Listen to this one, and you'll quickly find yourself seeking out the whole series.

This audiobook is expertly read by Peter Kim, with audio engineering by Sam Platt. It was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

I always enjoy books set in ancient China. Van Gulik lived in China for much of his life and knows his material inside out. His protagonists are engaging and the setting are meticulously researched.

I've loved this series for years
