        Roman

        by Xiao Bai, Lutz-W. Wolff

        Ein Attentat im Hafen und die bildhübsche Ehefrau an der Seite des Opfers verschwunden. Die Spur führt in die Französische Konzession: 1931 eine zu Reichtum gekommene Enklave Frankreichs mitten in Shanghai, bevölkert von Gangstern, korrupten Polizisten, Revolutionären und Spionen … Xiao Bai spinnt eine meisterhafte Intrige rund um ein verhängnisvolles Begehren, literarisch, spannend, atmosphärisch. An Deck des Ozeandampfers mit Kurs auf Shanghai schießt Hsueh heimlich ein Bild von ihr. Er ist Fotograf, sie wunderschön, nichts weiter. Doch als nach den Schüssen unten am Hafen ihr Gesicht in jeder Zeitung auftaucht und er ihr dann in den Gassen der Französischen Konzession wiederbegegnet, verfällt er ihr hoffnungslos. Um in ihrer Nähe zu sein, wird er Teil eines doppelbödigen Spiels, als Spitzel für die Polizei, Kämpfer für die Revolution und Waffenhändler. Nur Leidenschaft allein hat in der Französischen Konzession noch niemanden vor einer Kugel bewahrt, das weiß er ganz genau …
