  A plague is coming to London. Dreaded more than the Devil himself, cholera - the 'blue death' - spares no one. As fear grows across the city, Jem Flockhart and Will Quartermain are called to the bedside of a dead man, murdered, and with his throat torn out, in the back room of a brothel. When an innocent man is taken to Newgate, Jem and Will have until execution day to save him. The search for the identity of the corpse, and the killer, takes them to the gates of Blackwater Hall, home to the secretive, and corrupt Mortmain family. With the approach of autumn, no one is safe, for the fog brings with it an evil and poisonous sickness - the perfect shroud for murder. 
  When family secrets are prised out into the open, people begin dying. But who, or what, is the cause? Searching for answers, Jem and Will are driven underground, to the passages and tunnels beneath the city's teeming streets. Here, their adversary proves to be more elusive, and more deadly, than ever.

  Indiana Jones meets Shōgun in All the Tea in China, a searing historical adventure full of treasure, epic thrills, and a ruthless pirate queen … 
  The Duke of Devonshire has given Major William Gunn one last chance to save his daughter’s life. All William needs to do is the impossible. He must travel to China—where merely setting foot on shore is a death sentence for a European—then find a way to break into the impenetrable Forbidden City and steal tea from the Dragon Throne itself. 
  American frontiersman Nathanial Bidwell would never let William face this perilous journey alone. He owes his friend a life debt, which he hopes to finally repay. But just after glimpsing China’s shores, their mission takes an unexpected turn, and they find themselves ensnared in a conspiracy to overthrow the emperor. Their only hope lies in finding an ancient treasure—and in order to do so they must form an uneasy alliance with the notorious and formidable pirate queen, Lin Mai. To recover the treasure, the unlikely trio must learn to work together to capture and sail the fastest ship on earth—or risk being intercepted by their enemies’ combined forces. 
  With an entire civilization in the balance, William, Nate, and Mai must decide: Are they in it for love, money, or All the Tea in China?
