Features: Snowflakes swirling. In an ancient Spanish-style villa on the outskirts of a northern provincial capital, the lights are blazing. The main leaders of the Provincial Committee and the Provincial Government are hosting a small yet grand welcoming banquet for the retired commander of a major military region who has settled in the provincial capital. An hour before the banquet begins, three gunshots suddenly echo through the small woods behind the villa. When the guards rush over, they discover Zhang, the secretary of the Municipal People's Government Secretariat, murdered in an old house at the back of the woods. Who, and for what reason, would choose such a scene and timing to kill a government employee in such a setting? This is another anti-corruption masterpiece by renowned writer Lu Tianming, following his previous work Above the Blue Sky. The novel delves deeply into the painful and ugly journey of human nature's distortion after the of power and selfish desires, and passionately calls out for social justice and conscience with every word. The novel maintains the unique style Lu Tianming has consistently employed in his similar works: sharp pen, rising suspense, fervent passion, and a noble righteousness. It organically combines the serious and heavy theme of anti-corruption with the narrative techniques of a detective novel, making it utterly captivating and hard to put down. Readers are struck with fresh perspectives and left pondering long after closing the book.
