Description

The fate of the Ming hangs on a knife edge. In the south, defence against relentless pirate raids is escalating into all-out war.

The beleaguered Chinese forces must rally for a desperate last stand fought across salt and sand.

Nearby, fearless magistrate Hai Rui is tasked with investigating a major corruption scandal.

In Beijing, a chance to trump the embezzling viper Yan Song and his influential clan presents itself.

There to snatch it is the Crown Prince, and his coalition of the righteous.

At a time when the appearance of a mysterious 'blood scripture' could either turn the tide or unleash chaos untold, chief eunuch Lu Fang, a loyal and yet crafty kingmaker, is forced to choose sides.

In war as in the Forbidden City, the game is sudden death.

Now, China's heroes make their move: a perilous gambit to salvage centuries of progress.

If they fail everything burns.
