When security and fire alarms go off simultaneously all around the world, setting off a panic, the signal is traced back to China. As world leaders scramble to respond, mother and daughter Vivien and Alice Li are called to the White House in hopes Madame Li can decode the Chinese intentions.

Alice is a first-generation Chinese-American food blogger. A Chinese dissident who escaped China after Tiananmen Square, Vivien is now a globally recognized human rights activist and passionate advocate for a free and democratic China. While it makes some sense that the President would turn to Vivien, what isn't clear is why they'd want to talk to Alice.

Caught up in the chaos, Vivien and Alice are uniquely placed to stop the next, cataclysmic attack. But there are forces deep within both the American and Chinese governments intent on stopping mother and daughter. The estranged pair, who excels at misunderstanding each other, must figure out how to work together.

The increasingly frantic search for answers takes the women from the Oval Office to an office building in Akron, Ohio, from the noodle shops of Hong Kong to the necropolis of the first emperor. Along the way they must decode an old legend, and an old language invented by women, for women.

The Last Mandarin is the story of a mother and daughter, as well as a compelling international thriller about the precarious balance of power across the world, and within a family. And what happens when both break down.©2026 Louise Penny and Mellissa Fung (P)2026 Macmillan Audio Thriller

Kritikerstimmen

An intelligent espionage thriller... Penny's trademark humor mingles well with Fung's political expertise. The result is an eerily plausible nail-biter

Well read, good pace, first half very grand, second half in parts a bit technical, learned things about China I did not know and yes the writing is maybe a bit geared toward movie adaptations but I would adore to see that movie.. go ahead it it will be better, much better, than some of the things you have read or listened to and there are small bits of Gamache in there..

Very cool story
