Three murders in Honolulu. Three more in Shanghai. At every scene, the same disturbing object is left behind: a small serpent carved from jade.
As Honolulu police search for a connection among victims who appear to have nothing in common, Jimmy Chan becomes involved in the investigation through observation, photography, records, and determined legwork. Across the Pacific, Charlie Chan encounters an eerily similar murder in Shanghai.
What first appears to be coincidence soon becomes a carefully constructed mystery linking two cities and two investigations.
Witnesses contradict one another. Old connections emerge. Physical clues point in competing directions. And as Charlie and Jimmy compare what they have learned from opposite sides of the Pacific, it becomes increasingly clear that someone may be steering the investigation toward a convenient-but false-solution.
Working alongside local authorities rather than replacing them, Charlie and Jimmy follow a trail through Honolulu and Shanghai in which small details prove more valuable than appearances.
The Jade Serpent Murders is a classic clue-driven Charlie Chan mystery in the screen tradition, combining brisk investigation, international intrigue, multiple suspects, physical evidence, misdirection, and a fair-play solution in which the decisive clues are placed before the reader.
