A stolen jade pendant. A vanished scientist. A mysterious crystalline technology. And a conspiracy designed to start a war. Major Hiroshi Takamura has retired from intelligence work. Wealthy, impeccably dressed, and determined to enjoy a quiet life, he has little interest in politics-or mysteries. Unfortunately, mysteries have a habit of finding him. When a priceless Seiran artifact disappears and a scientist vanishes without a trace, Takamura notices something the authorities miss: the stolen objects have something in common. Each contains a rare crystalline component capable of stabilizing a revolutionary new communications system.
The invention could transform civilization.
It could also create an unbreakable military command network.
As representatives of the Four Banners gather for a diplomatic summit, Longhua intelligence officers arrive with suspicious knowledge of the investigation. A Maharlikan merchant with divided loyalties enters the game. An assassin strikes. And evidence begins pointing toward a conspiracy far more dangerous than simple espionage. Someone is assembling the Jade Lattice. Someone intends to use it to manufacture a war. Takamura, Inspector Mina Park, and a reluctant band of allies must uncover the truth before the Four Banner alliance collapses-and Longhua arrives to restore peace. In a world where a single silent command can move a fleet or start a war, the greatest danger may be the man who believes civilization would be better without freedom. The Dragon's Silent Signal is a Golden Age science-fiction espionage mystery featuring intrigue, deduction, political conflict, and classic space-opera adventure.
