(Author)
Description
Things get personal for Chinese-Norwegian modern-day ninja Lily Wong in Hong Kong when she dives into the dangerous world of triads, romance, and corporate disaster. Lily's mother has been summoned by her grandfather to attend an emergency board meeting, and Lily is happy to take her father's place for exotic travel, Hong Kong relatives, and romantic dates with her new boyfriend, Daniel Kwok, who's there for business. They stay at Gung-Gung's hillside home on Hong Kong Island, but tension between him and Ma makes it hard for Lily to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Gung-Gung won't say anything about the meeting and Ma is worried that her career is in jeopardy. Tensions run high as Lily and Ma learn more about shaky finances, questionable loans, and plans for the future involving them both. Lily's decision to investigate the firm partners puts Ma in grave danger, and her decision to escalate her romance with Daniel puts her own heart at risk. Will her ninja skills allow her to protect herself, her family and the business while navigating love, espionage and murderous triads?Product Details

Reviews
"With THE NINJA'S BLADE Tori Eldridge turns the dial to 11. More action, more fantastic characters, and more devious twists. Highly recommended!"--Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of V-WARS and INK "Eldridge does a terrific job...her need to stand up for and to protect the vulnerable should be a rallying cry. This series continues to impress."--Library Journal (Starred) "Lily Wong is gutsy, smart, and irresistible--just like THE NINJA'S BLADE. Grab it!" --Meg Gardiner, Edgar Award-winning author of THE DARK CORNERS OF THE NIGHT "In her unconventional style, the indomitable Lily keeps all these balls in the air, resulting in an exciting mystery that takes a sobering look at the sexual exploitation of youth in Los Angeles. Readers will eagerly await Lily's next outing.--Publishers Weekly "Lily Wong is back and her quest for justice is stronger than ever! Buckle up for another heart-stopping ride!"βKaren Dionne, USA Today and #1 internationally bestselling author of THE WICKED SISTER "The Ninja's Blade will have you on the edge of your seat, turning pages so fast toward the end that you risk death by paper cut. Lily may not be winded at the end of those ninja fights, but you sure will be. If you're not reading this series, you're missing out big time.--Tracy Clark, author of the acclaimed Cass Raines Chicago Mystery series
